Chinese astronomy divides the year into twenty-four parts, based on the longitude of the sun on the ecliptic, called "Solar Terms." As recounted in "Groundhog Day and Chinese Astronomy", the Chinese seasons begin at the midpoints between the solstices and equinoxes, not at the solstices and equinoxes themselves. The Chinese New Year, according to the rule of the T'ai-ch'u Era (104 BC) of the Emperor Wu Ti of the Former Han Dynasty, is the Second New Moon after the Winter Solstice |

China's climate varies from bitter cold in winter to unbearable heat in summer. The Yangtze River serves as China's official dividing line between
north and south. Given the size and varied landscape of the country, there is no one time in the year when Chinese weather is ideal. Of course, the warmest
areas in winter are to be found in the South and Southwest, such as Sichuan, Banna in Yunnan, and Hainan Island. In summer the coolest spots are in the far northeast. 
Annual average temperatures, rainfall and rainy days for 27 cities in China, with conversion charts for American users.
