I have been working in South China for more than 2 years. I will move to Baotou high-tech zone to work for at least 1 year from next March. What’s the weather in Baotou? Any suggestions? Thanks.

It is windy in spring in Baotou. Sometimes, the gale can reach fifth or sixth grade, followed by the dust storm. Compared with South China, the weather is dry all year around. Summer comes at end of May in Baotou. The temperature difference between day and night is big in summer. Autumn is the best season. There is no extreme temperature. It is very comfortable.You can wear either pants or shorts. But the UV (ultraviolet) radiation is stronger than the one in South China, so protect yourself from the sunshine. It is very cold and dry in winter in Baotou. But there are heaters and air-conditionings inside rooms. So it is still comfortable. Hope these help.
