What are the climate laws in New Zealand?

New Zealand is in the southern hemisphere, and its seasons are just the opposite of those in the northern hemisphere. The climate in New Zealand is mild, and the differences among the four seasons are not obvious. Winter is mild and humid, and summer is warm and dry. Summer is 65438+February to February, autumn is March to May, winter is June to August, and spring is September to165438+1October. The whole territory belongs to the marine temperate broad-leaved forest climate. Due to the influence of the west wind, the average annual precipitation on the west coast is 1000-3000mm, and the southwest coast of South Island can reach more than 5000mm; The east coast is only 500 mm.

New Zealand is surrounded by the sea, and there is no large land nearby that affects climate change, so the temperature difference between winter and summer is very small, only about 10℃. Even in the coldest July and August, the temperature is not lower than10℃; In the hottest January and February, the temperature stays around 25℃. The annual average temperature in North Island is about 15℃, and that in South Island is about 10℃.

The climate characteristics in different regions are also different. Generally speaking, the farther north, the higher the temperature. North Island has a mild climate and lush vegetation all year round. South Island has a low temperature and four distinct seasons. The average annual rainfall in New Zealand is between one thousand and two thousand millimeters. It seldom snows in the northern part of the North Island and the South Island except in the mountainous areas, while it usually snows in the South Island every winter.

I have lived in both the North Island and the South Island of New Zealand. Auckland in the North Island is more like Guangzhou in China, but it is much cooler in summer, but it is not so cold in winter, but it rains a lot and is very comfortable.

Wellington, the capital, is located in the south of North Island, nicknamed "Wind Capital". Because it is colder than Auckland in the middle of the strait, it is windy for 365 days and 360 days. Just get used to it.

Christchurch in the South Island is like spring all the year round, just like Kunming in China, but it will be colder at night, and the temperature difference between morning and evening in summer is large. It snows about once or twice a year.

Dunedin, South Island is quite cold, and there are more days of snow in a year, but the lowest temperature is still much warmer than that in Northeast China, which is acceptable.

I have mentioned several places that China people have been to. I hope I can help you! You can also ask me about other small places where I have been.
