What's the climate like in Malaysia?

Malaysia has a tropical rainforest climate.

Malaysia is located in the equatorial zone between north latitude 1 and 7 degrees, and belongs to a tropical country. Speaking of the equator, people will think that it is extremely hot there, but it is not. Although Malaysia is located at the equator, as a low-latitude maritime country, its climate is deeply influenced by the ocean, forming a unique tropical rain forest climate, which has no four seasons, high temperature and rainy all year round, extremely small temperature difference and high relative humidity.

The temperature in Malaysia changes little throughout the year. The average temperature at night is above 2 1℃, the average temperature during the day is about 32℃, the daily temperature difference is about 7℃, and the annual temperature difference is only about 1℃. This climate has brought many benefits to local residents, making it easier to dress, as long as you have summer clothes, and you don't need to buy complicated four-season clothes, which is also very convenient for tourists coming to Malaysia. In addition, the humidity in Malaysia is very high, with an average humidity of 80%.

Climatic characteristics of tropical rain forest

It is hot and rainy all year round. The annual variation of solar radiation is small, because the sun passes through the zenith twice before and after the vernal equinox and autumnal equinox in a year, the annual variation of meteorological elements has double peaks. The average monthly temperature varies between 24-28℃ in a year, and the annual temperature difference generally does not exceed 5℃, especially in the ocean, which usually does not exceed 65438 0℃. The daily variation of temperature is greater than the annual variation, and the daily amplitude can reach 10- 15℃.

However, the daily maximum temperature rarely exceeds 35℃, and the daily minimum temperature rarely falls below 20℃. The humidity is high all year round. As far as the lower reaches of the Amazon River are concerned, the annual average relative humidity exceeds 90%. There is abundant precipitation, mostly accompanied by thunderstorms. The annual precipitation reaches 1500-3000mm, and the maximum is over 6000mm in mountainous areas. For example, the annual precipitation in Debenga at the foot of Cameroon volcano in Africa reaches 9470 mm. The seasonal distribution of precipitation is relatively uniform, but there are still obvious differences in individual areas.
