The circulation in middlehigh latitudes showed a threewave pattern, and there was a positive anomaly of the geopotential height over China. The strength of Western Pacific subtropical high was weaker than that in normal years. The monthly mean temperature was 12.4℃, 0.9℃ higher than normal, becoming the fifth highest in records since 1961. The monthly mean precipitation amount was 45.7 mm, 4.8% more than normal, of which the precipitation in the southwest of China was significantly higher than in normal years.
