What is the distribution range of warm temperate continental monsoon climate in my country?

Warm temperate continental monsoon climate

Distribution areas: Mainly in most areas of the North China Plain, such as Weifang, Beijing, Shijiazhuang, and Jinan, they all have a warm temperate continental monsoon climate.

Climate characteristics: The spring is windy and dry, the summer is hot and rainy, the autumn is high and the air is cool, and the winter is cold and dry. Spring and autumn are relatively short. The seasonal distribution of precipitation is very uneven. 80% of the annual precipitation is concentrated in the three months of June, July and August in summer, during which there are often heavy rains.

Spring (March-May): The temperature rises quickly, the diurnal range is large, the weather is dry, the wind is strong and windy, the precipitation is low, the evaporation is large, the soil loses moisture quickly, and the spring drought is serious. The average diurnal range in spring is between 10 and 14 degrees Celsius, which is the largest in the whole year. There are many and strong winds in spring, especially in April, with an average wind speed of 4 meters/second, which is the month with the highest average wind speed throughout the year.

Summer (June-August): The weather is hot in summer, with an average temperature of 26.7°C. This season is not only hot and rainy, but also has the characteristics of hot and rainy seasons. Summer precipitation accounts for more than 80% of the annual precipitation. The average number of precipitation days in July is about 15 days. The number of heavy rain days with daily precipitation greater than or equal to 50mm is concentrated in July and August, accounting for about 65% of the annual heavy rain days. Drought often occurs in early summer due to high temperatures, strong winds, and low humidity.

Autumn (September-November): The rainy season is basically over. The high-altitude westerly winds gradually strengthen and move southward. The southeast monsoon gradually transitions to the northwest monsoon, forming a short period of weak wind speed, few clouds, and excellent and stable visibility. The weather is fine and sunny, with "high autumn air and crisp air" showing sunny and windy weather. Too little rainfall will cause autumn drought.

Winter (December to February of the following year): controlled by Mongolian cold high pressure, cold northerly winds blow. Cold air continues to invade, causing the temperature to continue to drop. Throughout the winter, there was little rain and snow, frequent northerly winds, and it was dry and cold.
