The winter is not cold and the summer is not hot. Huzhu County has a temperate continental climate, with drought and little rainfall. Also due to the complex terrain, wide altitude differences, uneven horizontal distribution of heat resources, and very obvious differences in vertical zones, the general trend of temperature distribution is to increase from north to south as the altitude decreases.
