What are the characteristics of autumn climate?

The temperature will gradually drop in autumn, but it is generally slower than in winter. Due to the difference of dry and wet conditions, there will be cold and rainy weather conditions or dry and cool weather conditions in different regions. In the cold late autumn, due to the large temperature difference between day and night, the water vapor transpiration during the day will condense at night, either dew or frost. In autumn, the direct point of the sun gradually moves south from the northern hemisphere, passes through the equator after the autumnal equinox, and the sun directly shines in the southern hemisphere. Seen from the northern hemisphere, the angle of the sun gradually becomes lower, and the gap between day and night becomes smaller. At the autumnal equinox, the length of day and night is equal. In autumn, the distance between the earth and the sun is from far to near. Seen from the ecliptic plane, the sun is on the background of Leo, Virgo and Libra.

According to the standard of dividing seasons according to the average temperature, it must be that the average temperature for five days is below 22℃ to be considered as autumn. According to this standard, the Jianghuai area generally enters autumn in the middle and late September. After beginning of autumn, although the summer heat is hard to disappear for a while, there is still the afterglow of "autumn tiger", but the general trend is that the weather is getting colder and colder. The daily temperature range is gradually obvious, which is often very hot during the day and very cold at night.

Autumn actually means that the crops are about to mature. After beginning of autumn, late rice in most parts of South China started jointing and heading, and cotton bolls cracked. Mid-season rice and summer corn entered the stage of grain filling maturity. In the east and west of South China, the task of drought and flood control is still very arduous. In South China after beginning of autumn, although the season is still midsummer, "beginning of autumn is full of yellow in ten days" and a golden "autumn" is coming.
