It snows in Ding Zhen’s hometown of Litang in August. Why is the local weather so cold?

Because the area where Ding Zhen is located is a Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, some places in the area have very high latitudes and altitudes, so such cold weather occurs.

We must know that China has a vast territory and rich resources, and the geographical environment of the entire region is different. Although it is currently summer, it is still snowing in some places, and some places have even received very thick snow. Ding Zhen's hometown belongs to a very high altitude area, and it is very normal for snow in these areas to snow in August.

1. Ding Zhen’s hometown is covered with snow in August.

After Ding Zhen became popular, Ding Zhen’s hometown also attracted the attention of many netizens. Ding Zhen's hometown belongs to the Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. The altitude here is very high, and the evaporation of water vapor is also very fast. Under such a climate, it snowed heavily in my real hometown, and 5 centimeters of snow had already accumulated in some places. This news quickly aroused heated discussions among netizens. Many netizens live in coastal cities and inland cities, and it is difficult to imagine that it will snow heavily in August.

2. The local climate environment is very cold, and the latitude and altitude are relatively high.

The reason why it snows heavily in August is mainly related to the local climate characteristics. In the plateau area, snow is actually a very normal phenomenon in August. The climate conditions in the plateau area are relatively harsh and extreme weather often occurs. Ding Zhen’s hometown has snow for at least 6 months of the year, which is unimaginable for many mainland friends.

3. The local winter is relatively long and the temperature is generally low.

For Ding Zhen’s hometown, even in midsummer, the temperature in Ding Zhen’s hometown will be within 20 degrees, and even reach around 0 degrees in the morning and evening. To a certain extent, the geographical conditions of the plateau climate are quite special and can cause a lot of extreme weather. This is one of the charms of the plateau climate. Many people particularly yearn for the life in Sichuan and Tibet, perhaps because they yearn for the charm of nature.

Personally, if I have the conditions, I would also like to see the spectacular snow scene in August in person.
