Tianjin Climate

Semi-arid continental climate on the Bohai coast. Winters (December–February) are cold (−8–3°C) with some snow and wind-driven cold. De-icing requirements are moderate. The main winter disruption risk is blowing snow and fog reducing visibility on the coast.

Summers (June–August) are hot and humid at 30–35°C. July is the wettest month with heavy rain from remnant Pacific weather systems. Spring brings sandstorm risk (March–April) from northern deserts. Yellow dust reduces visibility and occasionally grounds flights. The clearest and most stable weather is September through October.
