Climatic characteristics of beginning of autumn

From this day on, autumn began, and autumn was crisp. Since then, the temperature has gradually decreased from the hottest time.

Beginning of autumn has arrived, but it's not autumn yet. The division of climatic seasons should be based on the "climatic average temperature", that is, the local average temperature is lower than 22℃ for five consecutive days, which is the real autumn season. China is a vast country. Although the climate varies from place to place, most areas have not yet entered the autumn climate, and the last days of dog days are still the third day after beginning of autumn. Especially in the southern part of China, this solar term is still hot in summer. At the same time, because the typhoon and rainy season are about to pass, and the temperature is even hotter, China medicine calls the period from beginning of autumn to the autumnal equinox "long summer".

In general, the autumn wind in the capital Beijing will be cool in early September, and the autumn around Qinhuai will begin in mid-September.
