Dalian's Climate
Dalian sits at the tip of the Liaodong Peninsula on China's northeast coast and has a monsoon-influenced humid continental climate strongly moderated by the sea, making it far milder than inland cities at the same latitude. Summers (June–August) are warm and humid rather than hot, around 24–28°C, holding most of the rainfall and occasionally brushed by late-summer typhoons. Winters (December–February) are cold, dry and windy, usually -3 to 3°C, with little snow thanks to the sea. Spring arrives late and cool, while autumn is dry, sunny and the most pleasant season. Strong sea breezes are a year-round signature.
