What season is August 28th?

August 28th is summer.

Summer is the second season in the four seasons of the year, from long summer to early autumn. High temperature is the most prominent climate feature in summer, but due to different regions and different dry and wet environments, different climates will be produced, such as hot and dry or wet and rainy. China has a vast territory, and the summer climate in different regions is different.

Generally speaking, the southeast monsoon region is hot and rainy in summer, the southwest high-altitude region is cool and rainy in summer, and the northwest region is hot and dry in summer.

Characteristics of summer:

Summer is a season of struggle between Yin and Yang, with Yang upward and Yin forced downward. Summer is full of yang, especially in midsummer. In midsummer, the sun is pure and healthy, and yin and evil are feared. Summer is divided into three stages: Xia Meng, midsummer and seasonal summer. According to the solar calendar, it is probably May in Xia Meng, June in midsummer and July in the last month of summer. Because the direct point of the sun on the summer solstice is on the tropic of cancer, the summer solstice is always on June 2 1 or 22 in the solar calendar.

The high temperature in summer in the northern hemisphere is the most remarkable climate feature. Due to the difference of region and dry and wet environment, it will produce dry and hot or wet and rainy climate.

In China, the coastal areas were heated inland in May, and a low pressure formed in the southwest caused the southwest monsoon, which reached the coastal areas of China in May. At this time, the northeast monsoon is blocked by the southwest monsoon, and it is rarely affected in summer. It will not be affected until the end of August to mid-September.
