When is the rainy season in Zhejiang?

The rainy season is different every year, but the rainy season in the south is generally from mid-June to early July, which usually takes more than 20 days. Meiyu period refers to the period of continuous rainy weather in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China from mid-June to mid-July every year. At this time, the utensils are easily mildewed, so they are also called "mildew rain", and when the plums in the south of the Yangtze River are yellow, they are also called "plum rain" or "Huang Meiyu". The time that the rain belt stays is called "Meiyu season", the day when the rainy season begins is called "entering the plum blossom", and the day when it ends is called "emerging the plum blossom".

On normal rainy days, the rainy period is generally 20-30 days (from mid-June to mid-July), and the rainfall is generally 200-400 mm. The normal plum rains in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River begin in mid-June and end in mid-July, and are in two solar terms: mango and summer solstice. The meiyu period is about 20-30 days, and the rainfall is between 200-400 mm. Before and after "Little Summer", the main rainfall belt moves northward to the Yellow River and Huaihe River basins, and then to Shandong and North China. The Yangtze River basin began to change from rainy and humid weather to sunny and hot summer. According to statistics, this normal plum rain accounts for about half of the total.
