Which is colder in winter between Zhengzhou and Wuhan?

Both Zhengzhou and Wuhan have obvious cold weather in winter, but there are differences in the source of cold air and relative humidity.

1. Source of cold air: Zhengzhou’s winter is affected by the cold air from Siberia. In addition, it is located in the North China Plain and lacks the obstruction of mountains, hills and other terrain, so the cold north wind easily invades the city. Wuhan is mainly affected by two waves of cold air moving south, one from Siberia and the other from the Polar Regions.

2. Relative humidity: The air in Zhengzhou is dry in winter, the relative humidity is low, and the lack of water vapor makes the cold even more biting. In contrast, the air humidity in Wuhan is relatively high in winter, which makes the feeling of cold less obvious than in Zhengzhou.

In general, winter temperatures in Zhengzhou are generally cooler, while winters in Wuhan may feel wetter and colder. However, the specific feeling of cold and warm is also closely related to the weather conditions, such as whether there is snowfall, whether there is rain, etc.
