%X In January 2018</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">,</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> a high record of monthly total precipitation in northern</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> China drew our attention. The precipitation amount is 4 times more than
that in normal winters over the past 30 years. Up to now, many research</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">es</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> over the world focus on the
intensity of precipitations or the number of intense precipitations, however,
no sufficient study is investigated in the continuous </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">mod</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">erate precipitations. The abnormal precipitation in January
2018 in northern China is a typical case of the continuous moderate
precipitation. The research region is composed by the northern part of the
farming-pastoral zone </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">and the Hulunbuir
Grassland. The main method in this study consists of</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> ana</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">lyzing the abnormal precipitation month by
identifying the precipitation</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> types and locations, and exploring the
atmospheric circulations at the moment of typical </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">precipitations. The research found that the continuity is the key point
for</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> high precipitation amount in January 2018 in Northern China.
Besides, this continuity is caused by frequent appearance of cyclones in the
vicinity.
