What season is the early summer in Britain and Japan?

Isn't it early summer? If we analyze them strictly according to geography, we should analyze their climate types.

Japan belongs to the temperate maritime monsoon type, which is mainly characterized by mild and humid all year round, no severe cold in winter and no intense heat in summer.

Britain should belong to the temperate high latitude type.

Japanese temperate marine monsoon type. The four seasons are distinct, and the seasons are very different. . There are great regional differences. . Warm and rainy.

Japan has a long and narrow territory, which runs through three climatic zones: tropical zone, temperate zone and frigid zone. Coupled with the dual influence of continental and maritime climate, the climate changes greatly and the four seasons are distinct. In summer, the temperature in the whole country is generally high and the precipitation is abundant. In winter, the sea of Japan is snowy and cloudy, while the Pacific Ocean is dry and sunny. The temperature difference between north and south is large in winter. On June 5438+ 10, the average temperature in Sapporo in the north was below zero, and that in Naha in the south was above 15 degrees.

Sakura is the national flower of Japan. It blooms first in South Kyushu in March every year, and blooms one by one from south to north. It is called "Cherry Blossom Front Line", and the cherry blossom opening time in Hokkaido is generally around mid-May every year.

Japan's climate zone can be divided into Hokkaido climate zone (cool in summer, cold in winter, less precipitation, less affected by plum rains and typhoons), Japan Sea coastal climate zone (snowy in winter, sunny in summer), inland climate zone (less precipitation due to monsoon, large temperature difference between day and night in Xia Dong), and Pacific coastal climate zone (influenced by ocean, rainy in summer, hot and foggy, warm in winter, mostly affected by typhoons).

Most of the Japanese archipelago is located in the temperate zone, and its climate belongs to the temperate maritime monsoon type. Its main characteristics are mild and humid all year round, with no severe cold in winter and no heat in summer. Compared with countries in the same latitude on the east coast of Eurasia, Japan's climate is maritime, while compared with Britain and western European countries on the west coast of the mainland, it is continental.

geographical environment

The whole territory consists of most of the islands of the British Isles near the northwest coast of the European continent, facing the European continent across the North Sea, the Dover Strait and the English Channel. It is an island country.

Britain is located between 50 and 60 degrees north latitude, farther north than Heilongjiang Province in China, but the climate is much milder. It can be said that there is no cold in winter and no heat in summer. This mild climate is first attributed to the tropical Gulf Stream. This warm current is hundreds of kilometers wide. Flowing to the northwest coast of Europe, it was renamed the Atlantic Warm Current, which brought a mild and humid maritime climate to Britain. Take London as an example, rivers and lakes rarely freeze in winter, and the average temperature of 1 month is above 4 degrees (Celsius); In summer, the weather is quite cool. The average temperature in July is only 17 degrees, so you often need to add a sweater in the morning and evening. The annual rainfall is about 600 mm, which is not much, but it is evenly distributed. As far as the whole country is concerned, the average temperature in 1 month is about 4 to 7 degrees, and in July it is 13 to 17 degrees. The annual rainfall in the northwest mountainous area exceeds 1000 mm, while it is between 600 mm and 700 mm in the southeast. Britain is foggy, with thin haze on sunny days in summer; Winter is often foggy, like rain but not rain, and if smoke is not smoke, this is mainly caused by the humidity of the island country. As for the dense fog that used to be common in London, it is not entirely a natural phenomenon. Due to the emphasis on environmental protection, the dense fog there has been greatly reduced.

The island has a mild climate, but the weather is changeable. British people often say: "There is climate abroad, but only weather in Britain" to show that the weather here is unpredictable. Indeed, it is not uncommon to see sunny, cloudy and rainy days in one day. This weather makes people very cautious. Seeing an Englishman wearing a raincoat and carrying an umbrella when he goes out on a sunny morning, foreigners may find it ridiculous, but he will soon regret his "ridiculousness". The changeable weather also provides people with frequent topics, and even the most taciturn people in Britain like to talk about the weather.

Affected by high latitude, the length of day and night in Britain is particularly obvious. In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. Before 3 pm, the sky was already dark. In summer, on the other hand, the days are long and the nights are short, and it begins to get dark at night 10. Generally speaking, summer is the best time to visit Britain. In summer, the days are long, the activity time is long, the temperature is moderate, the weather is refreshing, and people are full of energy. Although there is rain this season, it is generally discontinuous, which will affect the trip.
