national temperature map

GeogramattGeogramatt (203 posts) • 0

I feel silly asking this because feel I ought to be able to find it myself on the internet, but the fact is I just spent some time searching in both English and Chinese and turned up nothing.

I am looking for a map that shows the current (or daily) temperatures for the entire country of China.

This is an incredibly normal thing in other countries. Go to weather.com and in one click you can get this for the United States.

Why is it so difficult to find such a map for China? I can find maps of other (less useful) weather-related information, such as the deviation from mean temperature. But actual temperatures I can't find.

I know I can find a list of temperatures in various Chinese cities. But I like visualizing things in maps.

Surely such a map exists somewhere. Please can someone help me find it...

Thanks

It's cold everywhere in Asia..my friends in Nepal confirmed this.

Basic charts.

Raw data, Yunnan is in the lower left corner..

The main source, all weather networks get their info here.

I use the chart of India for Yunnan because it's in a smaller scale and you can easily locate on the upper right Erhai lake (Dali) and Dian lake (Kunming) and Fu Xian lake close together.

Wonder why several of those links seem to be banned. Are local weather forecasts sensible information during peace time these days? Somebody ought to take a good hard look at the gfw.

Blocking and unblocking things on the GFW keeps people employed. I can't see any other reason for most of it.

Hi Danmarien

I dont have any of those links banned, try again, maybe you have a special division of censors working on you...ha!

If anyone wants info on weather I would be happy help.

I use this weather map. You can "mouse over" the cities of interest to get current weather information displayed. Click on a city and you will be taken to another page for a forecast as well. You can do it in English or in Chinese (change languages upper right corner) and it isn't blocked here.

Hmm. I see now that it seems to be partnered with the previously mentioned web address: www.weather.com.cn/english/

So I guess there are two ways to get the same information.
