Beijing in June

Dry heat sets in. The midday sun bites and daylight lasts past 8 p.m. Sudden afternoon thunderstorms happen. A hat and sunscreen are essential, and outdoor sights are best done early morning or evening. The Dragon Boat holiday sometimes falls in June.

Highs averaged 31°C and lows fell only to 20°C, so evenings brought some relief. The temperature swung about 11°C within a single day, so midday and evening called for different clothes. Showers came now and then, about 6 rain days in all, and most of the month stayed dry. Counts moved moderately between years: 2 in 2023, 11 in 2008.

With up to 15.0 hours of daylight, dinner plans could still start in the light. Highs topped 30°C on 19 days of the month on average. Mixing in indoor stops at midday made sense. The warmest year was 2023, with highs averaging 34.4°C, 3.3°C above normal.
