The dry season is from June 1 1 to April of the following year. The continental dry westerly climate prevails in high-altitude areas, with low water vapor content, and only a small amount of rainfall or light snow can be formed, accounting for 15.7% of the annual average rainfall, with little precipitation. May to 10 is the rainy season, the westerly winds recede to the north, and the Indian Ocean monsoon breaks out, controlling the warm and humid air flow in the upper air.

The city is located on the windward slope of the west side of Minggong Mountain in Gaoling, which is conducive to the rise of warm and humid airflow, and produces condensed precipitation when it is cold, resulting in continuous rainfall, accounting for 84.3% of the annual average rainfall, with more rainfall. The temperature drops from south to north, and the vertical height difference is very different. Tengchong is cold in the north, cool in the middle and hot in the south. The mountains and rivers are cold, the dam area is cool, and the valley area is hot. As a result, the dry and wet seasons are distinct, the three-dimensional climate is obvious, and the rainfall distribution during the year is extremely uneven.
