Bacău County
Bacău County (Romanian pronunciation: [baˈkəw] ⓘ) is a county (județ) of Romania, in Western Moldavia, with its capital city at Bacău. It has one commune, Ghimeș-Făget, in Transylvania.
This county has a total area of 6,621 km2 (2,556 sq mi).
In the western part of the county there are mountains from the Eastern Carpathian group. Here, along the valleys of the Oituz River and Trotuș River, there are two important links between Moldavia and Transylvania. On the East side, the heights decrease and the lowest point can be found on the Siret River valley which crosses the county from North to South down the middle. On the East side there is the Moldavian Plateau crossed by many small rivers.
The climate is temperate-continental with excessive nuances in the East and moderate ones in the West, featuring marked altitudinal differences. The average annual temperature varies between 2°C in the mountain zone, 8°C in the sub-Carpathian and plateau regions, and 9–10°C in the Siret River meadow. The absolute maximum temperature (40.8°C) was recorded at Târgu Ocna (July 5, 1916), and the absolute minimum (–32.5°C) at Bacău (February 20, 1954). The amount of precipitation shows variations in relation to the relief units, reaching average annual values between 550 mm in the eastern part of the county and 1,100 mm on the mountain ridges in the West. The predominant direction of the winds denotes an accentuated frequency of air circulation from the North, Northwest, and Northeast, with their average annual speed varying between 4 and 6 m/s, and higher speeds recorded during the winter.
