Climate Chart of Shenzhen, China

Climate overview

Temperature

Monthly mean temperatures range from January at 16.0 °C to July at 28.5 °C. This indicates a marked difference between the coolest and warmest monthly averages, but these figures are not daytime maximum temperatures and do not describe the range between warmer and cooler days within either month. Across the calendar-month means, the unweighted mean is 23.2 °C; it is a summary of monthly averages, not a day-weighted annual average.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is highest in August, at 10.92 mm/day, and lowest in December, at 1.06 mm/day. The figures describe daily mean amounts associated with those months, not monthly rainfall totals, and the lower mean does not mean that every day is dry or indicate how often rain falls. The unweighted mean across the monthly daily-rainfall means is 4.99 mm/day. It offers a broad summary, but does not replace the month-specific figures when considering rainfall.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine duration reaches its highest monthly mean in July, at 10.07 hours/day, and its lowest in December, at 7.40 hours/day. These values describe average sunshine duration, not day length, and do not promise the same sunshine on each day. The unweighted mean across the calendar-month sunshine means is 8.31 hours/day, a useful broad reference rather than a guarantee of conditions on a particular date.

Snow

The highest supplied monthly mean for daily snowfall is January, at 0.01 mm/day. This small recorded mean does not establish the number of snowy days, snow depth, snow cover or skiing conditions.
