National high temperature list: coldest and hottest temperature difference 17℃. Why is Chongqing a well-deserved "high temperature king"?
1, surrounded by mountains.
Topographically speaking, Chongqing is purely a? Basin? Environment, surrounded by mountains and more than one mountain, there are several layers of mountains inside and outside. The main city of Chongqing is relatively low. In this terrain, it is difficult for the local high-temperature airflow to spread out, so continuous high-temperature weather will be formed every summer.
2, the air humidity is high, so it is extremely stuffy.
Chongqing is rainy all the year round, and the air humidity is high. At the same time, besides the Yangtze River, there are abundant water resources around Chongqing. Every year, a large amount of water evaporates into the air, which makes the air more sultry. In this humid environment, the higher the body surface temperature, the worse the body surface feeling will be.
In summer, clouds can't stop the sun.
Geographically speaking, Chongqing is located in the area ruled by subtropical high in the Yangtze River basin. That is to say, after the tropical airflow came from southern running all the way, it was blocked by mountains on the one hand, and kept falling under high pressure on the other. At the same time, there are few clouds in summer in Chongqing, the direct sunlight is serious, and the temperature will be higher.
