Climate in Hunan:

Hunan belongs to continental subtropical monsoon humid climate, which has three characteristics. First, light, heat and water resources are abundant, and the high values are basically synchronized. The second is that the climate changes greatly in a year. It is hot in Leng Xia in winter, changeable in spring, sudden drop in autumn, rainy in spring and summer, and drought in autumn and winter. The climate changes greatly from year to year. The third is that the most obvious zone of vertical climate change is the mountainous area surrounded by mountains on three sides.

In Hunan, spring is warm and cold, and the weather changes dramatically. Although the temperature gradually warms up in spring, cold air from north to south can still invade Hunan frequently, resulting in a sudden drop in temperature, accompanied by strong convective weather processes such as strong winds, hail and heavy rain. After the cold air, the rain turned fine and the temperature rose quickly. Generally speaking, there are 3-4 cold air intrusions every month from March to April, and the average daily temperature generally drops by more than 10℃, and sometimes even exceeds 15℃. There are 2-3 cold air intrusions in May, and the daily average temperature can drop by more than 7℃.
