Climate

edit

Due to its location at the bottom of a deep mountainous river valley, Yuanjiang lies at the junction of two different climate types, namely the tropical savanna climate (Köppen Aw) and, uniquely for China, the hot subtype of a semi-arid climate (Köppen Bsh). There are two main seasons: a dry season lasting from late November to early April, with mostly warm and dry weather (and the occasional cold snap) and the wet season covering May through September. The coolest month is December, which averages 18.7 °C (65.7 °F), and the hottest is June, at 30.2 °C (86.4 °F).
