Why does it rain every day in Dongguan this summer?

Because it is the rainy season, here is some information about it: 1. Meiyu in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China is usually the rainy season from mid-June to early July every year. In the past few days, the sky has been gloomy and the precipitation has been constant, sometimes big and sometimes small. Therefore, there is a popular proverb in southern China: "Rain hits plum blossoms, and there is no sun for forty-five days". Continuous rain, high temperature and high humidity are the main characteristics of plum rain. Very different from the climate in the same latitude area, Meiyu refers to the weather and climate phenomenon that occurs in a certain area and a certain season. It is found that Eurasia is between 20 N and 40 N, which is alternately controlled by subtropical high and westerly belt. The west coast of the mainland is controlled by the downdraft on the east side of the subtropical south pressure in summer, with sunny weather, partly cloudy and dry climate; In winter, under the influence of westerlies, warm and humid air is brought from the Atlantic Ocean, resulting in more precipitation and a mild and rainy climate. That is, the subtropical Mediterranean climate is dry in summer and humid in winter. The east coast of the mainland is controlled by the west side of subtropical high in summer, and the downward flow is dry, but it absorbs a lot of water vapor from the warm and humid sea surface, bringing abundant precipitation and producing a subtropical humid climate. Due to the strong contrast between land and sea, a unique monsoon climate has formed here, which is characterized by rainy summer and dry winter, with rainfall concentrated in summer, which is just the opposite of the Mediterranean climate. If compared with the east coast of Britain at the same latitude, it is also very different. There will be no rainy weather for a long time before and after the summer monsoon in the mid-latitude zone of the east coast of the United States, and people do not feel the feeling of sultry weather for a long time, so it is difficult to appear moldy. It can be seen that the precipitation season at the same latitude varies greatly. So there are only Huangmei in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, starting from the area east of Yichang and 29-33 degrees north latitude, as well as the southeast of Japan and the southernmost tip of the Korean Peninsula. In other words, Meiyu is a unique weather and climate phenomenon in East Asia and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China. 2. Rain belt Although Meiyu is a unique weather and climate in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, its appearance is not isolated, but closely related to the north-south displacement of a large-scale rain belt. In the east of China, east of 1 10E, during the flood season from mid-May to early June, the main rain belt swings in Nanling Mountains and its south. In recent years, although it moved to the north of Nanling within a certain period of time, it often stayed in the south of 28N and 29° n from a waiting period (5 days) or the multi-year average of 10 days. This period is called "rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River" or "pre-flood season in South China". In the middle and late June, the main rain belt moved northward within the range of 29° n-33° n (that is, from Yichang in the west, to the Yangtze River estuary in the east, and then across the sea to Japan; From the south of China Lake Basin to the south bank of Huaihe River), it is stable and less active. At this time, the area south of Nanling is outside the rain belt, and the rainy weather is over; The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River bid farewell to the sunny early summer and ushered in the rainy season. Heavy rain and rainstorm appeared from time to time and lasted until the beginning of July. This is a famous rainy season in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. From mid-July, the rain belt moved northward again, reaching the area north of 33 N. Stagnation and wandering in the Yellow River, Huaihe River Basin, North China, Northeast China and other places have caused heavy rainfall again and again, which are called "Huanghuai rainy season" and "North China rainy season" respectively. At this time, the plum rains in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River ended, the sun hung high and entered the hot summer season. This kind of weather will last until the end of August, and then the rain belt will quickly withdraw southward with the gradual activity of cold air. In less than a month, the rain belt will always retreat to the coastal areas of South China. The regular change of this rain belt shows that the plum rain in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is not an isolated and local weather and climate phenomenon, but an integral part of the main rainy season activities in eastern China, which reflects the stagnation of the main rain belt in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
