I want to go to China in the summer next year. But all my friends say that it's very hot in the summer. Why is China so hot in the summer, and not like in Canada, where the summers are always normal?

  1. good answer Mr Vision

    geography


  2. China has a subtopicial climate in places, it also has a few deserts.

    Then in summer China is nearest the sun the deserts will heat up (as well as the rest of China) and hot air will flow from them across China. If the cool air from the north is not strong enough to push it back China starts to heat up very quickly. These two wind patterns seem to be the major factor in the weather in China, the hot summers are caused by the hot air from the deserts while winter is caused by the cold air from russia. Then one is strong enough to break the other China turns from one season to the other quite quickly.


  3. Because it is closer to the equator.

  4. because Canada is like 200 meters away from the north pole, that's why it's cooler in the summer.

    By the way, just so u know, different cities & different countries have different tempertures

  5. April Overview:

    In April, in most of China, spring is in full swing. Fruit trees are blooming and temperatures are starting to really warm up. If you're ok with a little rain (or a lot), April can be a lovely time to visit China.

    Northern China, such as Beijing, is finally going to feel really comfortable for outdoor sight-seeing. Across central China, the weather is much the same as it was in March, which is warm, but damp. In the south, the weather is becoming increasingly warmer and you'll see days reaching above 80F. There will still be a lot of rain in both central and southern China, so bring your gear.

    April Weather:

    • Beijing: the ave daytime temp is 67F (20C) and ave number of rainy days is 5.

    • Shanghai: the ave daytime temp is 65F (18C) and ave number of rainy days is 13.

    • Guangzhou: the ave daytime temp is 78F (26C) and ave number of rainy days is 15.

    • Guilin: the ave daytime temp is 72F (22C) and ave number of rainy days is 20.

    April Packing Suggestions:

    Once again, packing for China is all about layers.

    • North: warm during the day but chilly at night. You may be able to do shorts & t-shirts during the day but you'll need a warmer base layer at night.

    • Central: think humid and damp. It can be warm so short pants and sleeves are good for daytime, but you'll want a warmer and weather-proof layer for evenings and rainy days, of which there will be plenty.

    • South: it'll be warm during the day, even hot, and humid. Bring light clothes that will feel comfortable under rain gear. You may want a heavier layer at night, but light pants will probably be the warmest you'll need.




  6. Because China is near the equator!
