Australian season

In Australia, 65438+February-February is summer, March-May is autumn, June-August is winter, and September-165438+1October is spring. The annual average temperature in the north is 27℃, and that in the south is 65438 04℃. Australia is located in the southern hemisphere. Although the time difference with China (including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) is only 2-3 hours, the seasons are completely opposite.

Every year in the same month, all localities generally have their own climate characteristics. In temperate regions, the hottest period receiving the most solar radiation is usually called summer, the coldest period receiving the least solar radiation is called winter, and the transitional period between them is called spring and autumn. For example, in temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, March-May is spring, June-August is summer, September 9- 10/October is autumn165438+1October, and 12- February is winter. In temperate regions of the southern hemisphere, September ~165438+10 is spring, June ~ August is summer, March ~ May is autumn, and June ~ August is winter. In ancient China, beginning of spring, Changchun, beginning of autumn and beginning of winter started the four seasons, while many countries in Europe and North America started the four seasons with the vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumn equinox and winter solstice. Although the astronomical season has climatic significance, it does not consider geographical and weather factors.
