Why is the weather in Yantai so cold?
Actually, our Yantai is not very cold. Friends from the mainland who come to Yantai will feel uncomfortable in winter. This is mainly because the sea wind in Yantai is very strong. When the north wind blows in winter, it will feel very biting, so it feels very cold. Although it is cold, the climate in Yantai is actually quite acceptable. I visited my home during the Spring Festival for the first time after serving as a soldier in the South for two years. When I came back, I had an obvious feeling. The wind made my face numb and I didn’t dare to take my hands out of my pockets. In fact, the temperature before and after the Spring Festival was around zero degrees. It's over, but it feels very cold.
