In Beijing on 6 Aug 2026, rain is possible: 33% chance, up to 1.3 mm forecast (source: Open-Meteo).

Rain is possible today but not certain — 33% chance of a thunderstorm, possibly for 3 hours. Carrying something compact is reasonable.

Beijing's summer monsoon (June–August) concentrates roughly 70% of the annual 600mm into a few intense months. The city can go weeks without rain in spring, then receive a month's worth in a single storm. Spring brings persistent dust from the Gobi Desert before monsoon moisture arrives. Winters are cold, clear, and very dry.
