Because of the high altitude, the air is thin, the air pressure is low, and the oxygen content is low, so the temperature is generally low, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. The rainy season in Tibet begins in April and May, and gradually expands westward from Tsatsumi and Mutuo in southeastern Tibet, until the whole of Tibet enters the rainy season in July. During the rainy season, the night rain rate is generally high in all parts of Tibet, especially in the Yarlung Tsangpo River valley. The night rain rate in Lhasa is as high as 85%.
