    The main characteristics of the general atmospheric circulation are as follows. There was one polar vortex center in the Northern Hemisphere, stronger than usual. The circulation in Eurasian middlehigh latitudes showed a fourwave pattern. The strength of Western Pacific subtropical high was a little weaker than normal. While the south branch trough was a little stronger than normal. The monthly mean temperature was 4.5℃, 0.4℃ higher than normal and the monthly mean precipitation amount was 36.2 mm which is more than normal by 22.7%. Two waves of cold air processes happened in this month, and three regional torrential rain processes occurred during the same period.
