Forecast

Beijing has a dry, continental climate. Winters are cold and dry, while summers are hot and humid. Most of the yearly rain falls from June through August. Spring can be windy and dusty, and autumn is usually cool, dry, and clear.

In winter, strong high pressure over Siberia sends cold, dry air toward Beijing. Winds often come from the north and northwest. In summer, the land heats up and air pressure becomes lower. Warm, moist air from the southeast moves in, bringing clouds, heavy rain, and thunderstorms.

Beijing Municipality includes mountains in the north and west and flat land in the southeast. The mountains can block or redirect cold winds and help shape local rainfall. The flat southeast connects to the North China Plain, allowing warm, moist air to move into the city.

Rainfall changes greatly by season. Snow is possible in winter, but winter precipitation is usually light. Summer rain can fall very heavily in a short time. Beijing can also have dust storms in spring, especially when strong winds carry dust from dry areas to the north and west.
