Many people say that Guangzhou is the hottest city in Guangdong province, but every time I look at the weather forecast, I find that Shaoguan is the hottest city in the province, not Guangzhou.

according to the actual weather observation, Guangzhou is not the hottest city in Guangdong province in summer. In summer, the temperature in Shaoguan is indeed higher than that in Guangzhou, and it is the largest city in Guangdong Province with the highest temperature in summer. However, in terms of average temperature, Guangzhou (annual average temperature of 21.9 degrees) is significantly higher than Shaoguan.

The reasons are as follows:

1. From the location, Shaoguan is an inland city in Guangdong, far from the ocean, which is obviously influenced by the mainland, with high temperature in summer and low temperature in winter; Guangzhou is in the Pearl River Delta, which is close to the sea.

2. Seen from the topography, Shaoguan is located in a relatively low-lying position surrounded by surrounding mountains, and the hot air is difficult to dissipate in summer, and it is just on the passage where cold air passes through Nanling Mountain in winter. Guangzhou, located in the Pearl River Delta, has a flat terrain, where hot air is relatively easy to dissipate in summer and warm up quickly in winter.
