Hong Kong's UV Index
Hong Kong's UV index can get very high, especially in summer, often reaching levels that are considered extreme, around 10 or more. It is lower in winter, usually between 1 and 3. The city experiences hot, humid summers with heavy rain from May to September. Winters are mild and dry, from December to February, with cooler temperatures and less humidity. Spring and autumn are transitional seasons with variable weather and moderate temperatures. Compared to nearby cities like Guangzhou and Shenzhen in China, Hong Kong tends to be more humid because it is by the sea. It is generally warmer and wetter than cities further north in China but cooler and less rainy than tropical countries like the Philippines or Malaysia.
