This morning, Beijing enjoyed a clear sky, signaling a transition as Frost’s Descent indicates the onset of cooler weather and the arrival of the first frosts. As the last solar term of autumn, it’s a key period marking the transition to winter. The forecast for the next three days indicates sunny weather, which will lead to an increase in maximum temperatures, although minimum temperatures will still be low, contributing to the notable day-night temperature variations.

According to the Beijing Meteorological Observatory, today’s weather will be predominantly sunny with a mix of clouds. Winds will shift from north to south at levels two to three, with a high of 18°C during the day. Tonight, it will be clear with winds shifting from south to north at levels one to two, dropping to a low of 5°C. By tomorrow and the day after, highs are expected to reach 20°C.
