Beijing Weather in August

Comparatively speaking, Beijing weather in August is much more comfortable than in July, but still very hot and wet. There may be sauna days and occasional thunderstorms. High temperatures of over 35°C (95°F) usually appear in the first two weeks of the month. From middle August, the weather is getting cooler especially in the morning and evening, for the Beginning of Autumn, one of the 24 solar terms, usually falls on August 7th, 8th, or 9th.

Due to the summer vacation in China, August is also a tourist month in Beijing. Attractions are crowded, and hotels and flights maybe overbooked, so it's advised to make good preparation in advance.
