  The Chinese meteorological industry standard - "Climate Seasonal Division" stipulates that the 5-day sliding average temperature is calculated based on the current year's temperature sequence to form a sliding average temperature sequence. When the sliding average temperature sequence is less than 10°C for 5 consecutive days, the corresponding current year's temperature sequence The first date less than 10°C is regarded as the starting date of winter. If the starting date of the initial judgment is more than 15 days earlier than normal, a second judgment of the starting date is required.

  According to the meteorological department, according to the actual calculation of temperature in Beijing since October 20, the sliding average temperature sequence has been less than 10°C for 5 consecutive days since November 5th, and the corresponding daily average temperature sequence is the first date less than 10°C. It is November 3 (9.1 ℃), which is slightly later than the annual winter entry date (October 31), so there is no need to make a second judgment.
