Hefei Weather

Hefei is the capital city of Anhui Province, lying between the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. Its climate is characterized by a subtropical monsoon type with four distinct seasons. The average annual temperature is about 15.7C (60.2F), with a high temperature of 38C (100F) in summer and a low temperature of -21C (69F) in winter.

Hefei climate in spring (March to April) is quite warm, but is prone to fluctuation. Although the natural landscape may be the most beautiful in spring, the rainy days make it not a suitable time to visit. The average temperature of summer (May to August) is about 28C (82F). The climate is not very hot compared with other cities in China, but it is also a rainy season. The plum rains-a period of unsettled weather with frequent, soaking rains- are a prominent feature in the summer of the city. Starting at the very beginning of June and ending at the end of July, it offers abundant rainfall for the place but causes some trouble for travel meanwhile. Do not forget to take your rain gear with you due to this special weather.
 
Compared with the other three seasons, autumn (August to October) may be the best time to have a visit, because the weather is quite favorable with crisp fall days. The winter (November to February) is a little bit cold with an average temperature of -10C (50F), so you will have to be prepared with scarf and warm clothing when you go there.
