Shenyang - Post Report Question and Answers

What is the overall climate: is it extremely hot or cold, wet or dry, at any time of year, for example?

Cold and dry in the winter, hot and humid in the summer. Not all that different than DC really. - Mar 2019


We get all four seasons here. Summer is warm (hot), sunny, and dry. Fall is beautiful. It starts to get cold in October, winter is cold and dry, very little snow. Expect lows in the negative teens. Spring arrives in March or April. - Jul 2016


The winter can be brutal, especially if you're not used to the cold. It starts getting cold at the end of October and doesn't really warm up till March and some years April. The summers are very temperate and enjoyable. Fall, though short, is incredible here with clear air and crisp cool temps. - Aug 2014


Nice and seasonal, then in mid November it starts to get really cold, then colder, and it never fluctuates. The Siberian weather system settles in and doesn't leave until April. There are no changes in the middle of winter. In January, the coldest month, it is below zero (F) every day. That being said, it's not cold indoors, and out in the suburbs, there is no wind - you just bundle up and stay indoors. There are some places nearby that some people have gone to to ski or sled. - Nov 2013
