In December, the average temperature in Moscow, Russia, is usually below zero degrees. There is a lot of snow and the weather is cold, wet and windy. The city is quite dark at the start of winter, with only about six or seven hours of daylight every day.
In Shanghai, China, the average temperature in December is a few degrees above zero. Because it is next to the sea, Shanghai does not get very cold. Winter in Shanghai can be quite wet. It often rains but seldom snows.
In Cairo, Eygpt, December is a winter month, but it is not cold, with an average temperature above 10 degrees Celsius. The weather is often pleasant, but it’s usually cloudy.
December is a summer month in Sydney, Australia. It usually has an average temperature above 20 degrees Celsius, but it is sometimes much hotter. The weather is great. On average, there are about nine hours of sunshine every day and not much rain.

Good morning, and welcome to world weather today.
We start in Moscow on a cold and snowy December morning. The temperature is minus ten to minus five degrees Celsius, so wear lots of warm clothes when you go outside.
Next we head over to Shanghai on a sunny morning. The temperature is seven to nine degrees Celsius and there’s a cool wind. So wear a light scarf.
Now we move to bright and sunny Cairo. The temperature is 14 to 16 degrees Celsius, so it’s fine to wear a light jacket.
And finally, it’s an unusual day in Sydney because it’s raining. It’s still hot with a temperature of 26 to 29 degrees Celsius, but you’ll need your umbrella if you go outside.
That’s it. Have a great day.

During this season, you can see colourful flowers everywhere. The temperature is usually above 30 degrees Celsius, and it is often sunny. The sun shines brightly, making everything look lively.

Summer is really great, and there are many fun activities to do. I love summer!
