Editing Qinhuangdao (section)

===Climate===
Qinhuangdao has a [[monsoon]]-influenced [[humid continental climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]] ''Dwa''), with four distinct seasons. Winters are cold and dry due to the [[Siberian high]], which often causes winds to blow in from the northwest, minimising the oceanic influence: the monthly daily average temperature in January is {{convert|−5.6|°C|1}}, colder than Beijing's {{convert|−2.7|°C|1}}.<ref name=CMA>{{cite web

The annual mean is {{convert|10.6|°C|1}}, and 70% of the annual precipitation falls from June to August. Extreme temperatures have ranged from {{convert|-26.0|°C|1}} on 6 January 2010 to {{convert|40.0|°C|1}} on 15 June 2017.<ref>{{Cite web |title=零下26摄氏度 秦皇岛市创56年来最低气温——中新网 |url=https://www.chinanews.com.cn/sh/news/2010/01-07/2059327.shtml |access-date=2025-01-08 |website=www.chinanews.com.cn}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=河北多地气温破历史极值 秦皇岛首次现40℃高温-资讯-中国天气网 |url=http://news.weather.com.cn/2017/06/2723679.shtml |access-date=2025-01-08 |website=news.weather.com.cn}}</ref>
