One method to finding the region’s specifications is climate zoning, and identifying the most important effective factors on each region. To better understanding of region climate, climate zoning is done using the new statistical methods; factor and cluster analysis. To do so, 18 variables are chosen from 11weather stations of Hamadan and Kurdistan. The results show that the region is affected by 5 factors, which as an importance order are: rainfall factors, snowing factors, atmosphere humidity factors, dusty factors and cloudy factors. Cluster analyze of 5 climate factors, specified 5 climate regions. Also it resulted that the rainfall and snowing factors specified the 56 percent of climate behavior.
