Komsomolsk-on-Amur has a monsoon-influenced warm-summer humid continental climate.
Warm summers and long, cold winters with snow. Rain in every month — here's what that means in plain terms.
What this climate feels like
The four things a regular visitor actually wants to know:
Highs near 80°F in July. About 1 days a year above 90 °F.
Lows near −16°F in January. About 132 freezing nights a year.
About 25 in of rain a year. Wettest in July.
A roughly even mix of sun and cloud.
What "monsoon-influenced warm-summer humid continental" means
Climate scientists sort every place on Earth into about 30 climate types, based on how hot, cold, wet and dry it is across the year. Komsomolsk-on-Amur's type — monsoon-influenced warm-summer humid continental — sits in the broad family of four-season continental climates.
Researchers write climate types as a short letter code. Here is what each letter means:
Cities with the same climate as Komsomolsk-on-Amur
A monsoon-influenced warm-summer humid continental climate (Dwb) — these recognizable cities share it. If you know one of them, you know roughly what to expect.
Komsomolsk-on-Amur sits near a climate boundary
This city sits right on the line between monsoon-influenced warm-summer humid continental and the next type along. Different climate maps file it on different sides of that line; the lived weather doesn't change at the line — it's a naming boundary, not a wall.
Has Komsomolsk-on-Amur's climate type changed?
A climate type is a coarse bucket. It can hold steady for years while the weather inside it shifts — or tip into the next bucket.
What this climate means for you
Soy, corn, hardy fruit; a short but productive monsoon-fed growing season.
Summer is the comfortable window. Winter is harsh and dry; spring and autumn brief.
Long, dry, bitter winters and warm, humid summers — the dramatic Far Eastern continental pattern.
Where these numbers come from
The climate type and the month-by-month figures on this page are computed from Komsomolsk-on-Amur's measured 30-year climate normals (1991–2020) — the same official records behind Komsomolsk-on-Amur's main climate page, so the two always agree.
Long-range climate maps measure things slightly differently and can place a city in a neighbouring category. Where they differ, this page uses the measured station record as the climate today.
Methodology & sources
Temperature — modelled for this location from ERA5-Land reanalysis, a ~9 km global grid, because no long-record weather station is close enough to use.
Precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 10 years of daily observations at Komsomolsk-na-amure, a weather station, about 3 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
