Snowy days in Beijing

In the impression of many people, there is relatively little rain in the north, especially in winter and spring, and it won't rain too much, while it rains as usual in the south, and it is often seen that the sky is raining. This is influenced by local climate characteristics. The south is warm and humid, with high air humidity and plenty of rain, while the north has distinct seasons all year round. It is cool and comfortable in spring and autumn, hot and rainy in summer, cold and windy in winter, and it often snows. Beijing is characterized by the weather in the north, so it rains less than that in southern cities.

1. Due to the influence of temperate monsoon weather, rainfall varies greatly in different seasons. In summer, a humid southeast wind will increase the rainfall in the north, but in winter, when there is more northwest wind and the weather is dry and cold, the rainfall will naturally decrease. Moreover, the temperature in winter in the north is low, and the rain in the air will turn into small snowflakes, forming snowy weather. So it seldom rains in winter. Due to the climatic characteristics influenced by geographical environment, rainfall is affected.

Second, the rainfall distribution in the north is relatively concentrated. Generally, it rains in summer and autumn, unlike in the south, it can rain all year round. There is a saying that spring rain is as expensive as oil. It can be seen that it rains relatively little in spring. Because there is more rain in summer and autumn, it seems that there is less rain compared with the weather that can rain all the year round in the south. Especially for people who are used to the warm and rainy weather in the south, they may feel a little dry if there is less rain.

Third, rainfall is relative. Every place has its own climate characteristics, and the annual rainfall will also change. Due to the change of climate and weather, the annual rainfall is different even in the same place. Of course, a place will rain more or less, but relatively speaking, the climate characteristics of each city have their own characteristics, and less rain has the advantage of less rain.
