A warm scene in Kunming, the sun in winter

KUNMING, December 22nd. The number of snowstorms in northern China has been freezing in recent days. Kunming, in the weekend, is another scene: the sun is shining brightly and endlessly. Thousands of thousands of red-billed gulls inhabit at Cui Lake and Dianchi Lake, attracting a large number of citizens and tourists. The gull song is a scene of Spring City. .

Tourists from Beijing Yu Changsheng took a small family to Kunming to play. The proper climate made him and his family choose to stay for a warm winter. “Beijing is a cold season at this time, and Kunming has 20 degrees Celsius. We can enjoy the sun, flowers, and seagulls every day. We are reluctant to leave,” Yu Changsheng said.

This too warm climate in Kunming has also attracted the attention of Mr. Lu’s citizen. “I’ve been living here for 50 years. Kunming is particularly warm this winter. I haven’t had cold since the beginning of winter.” Mr. Lu said, “Kunming will also be in winter. It's snowing, but down jackets haven't come in handy this year."

According to the data from the Yunnan Meteorological Bureau, the average temperature in Kunming in November was 1.8°C higher than normal, reaching 13.9°C, which is another historic high since 13.6°C in 1998. Since December, temperatures in Kunming have remained high. In the meteorological sense of the cold winter solstice, Kunming's high temperature reached 20°C, 1.2°C higher than in 2011.

Liu Yu, chief forecaster of the Yunnan Meteorological Bureau, said: “Kunming entered the winter on December 8th in 2011, but so far this year, it has not entered the meteorology sense in winter.”

According to Liu Yu’s analysis, although the north has a large area of ​​cooling and snowfall, due to the relatively northerly intersection of Yunnan’s cold and warm air, the strong cold air is blocked by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the north and east, plus the latitude is relatively low, and the solar radiation is relatively low. More, more heat is absorbed, resulting in a warmer climate in winter.

Kunming is a low-latitude plateau mountain monsoon climate with an annual average temperature of 15°C. Due to the suitable temperature and humidity, it is not cold in winter and summer without heat. The seasons are like spring, the flowers are not blooming, and the plants are flourishing. (Finish)
