How long is the rainy season in the south?

The rainy season in the south generally begins in June and ends in September, with less in July and August.

But this year may last for a long time, because of the influence of El Nino, there may be more precipitation and the duration will be longer.

The reporter learned from the National Climate Center of China on June 5438+05 that El Ni? o has increased significantly recently, and the seawater temperature in the equatorial Middle East Pacific has reached a new high since this El Ni? o event.

Zhou Bing, chief climate monitoring expert of China National Climate Center, said that recently, the abnormally warm water in the Pacific subsurface near the equator spread eastward and gradually rose to the surface. Monitoring shows that the SST in the equatorial Middle East Pacific was higher than normal in April 1 degree Celsius, and further higher in early May, setting a new high since the El Ni? o event in May last year.

Zhou Bing predicted that this round of El Ni? o events will last until summer and autumn, and the trend of "flooding in the south and drought in the north" in flood season in China is becoming more and more obvious. It is estimated that this summer, the precipitation from the Jianghuai Basin to the south of the Yangtze River will be more than normal, and floods will occur in some areas; The precipitation in North China is less than normal, and the drought is heavier. The number of typhoons affecting China is less than normal, but the average intensity is higher.
