Fujian
River in the Wuyi Mountains, Fujian province, China.
The coastal area of Fujian experiences a semitropical climate, characterized by hot summers and cool winters.1
Key features of this climate include:
- Seasonal Patterns: The year is divided into three distinct seasons: a cool season from November through February, a warm season from March through May, and a hot season from June through October.1
- Temperature: Mean temperatures in coastal cities like Fuzhou typically range from approximately 84 Ā°F (29 Ā°C) in July to about 52 Ā°F (11 Ā°C) in January.1
- Precipitation and Weather: During the summer, the region is influenced by a monsoonal, rain-bearing tropical airflow from the sea. Additionally, the coast is susceptible to typhoons during the late summer and early autumn months.1
Because the province lies just north of the Tropic of Cancer, the growing period in this region lasts throughout the entire year.1
