I understand what you said that there will be a "second winter" in your place every year. In China, we have a saying "返春". It means that although it's already spring, there are still cold days like winter at times.
I know about Wudang mountain and the Taoist priest in Wudang with excellent Kung fu. The same as you, I haven't been to Wudang either, so I am also very curious about everything about Wudang. But, I do know about a Taoist priest named Chen Shixing, and it is said that he has good light kung fu.
I looked at the weather in Saskatchewan and found out that the temperature there is only 1 to 12 degrees Celsius, which is still chilly while the temperature in my place is 11 to 19 degrees Celsius, so it is very comfortable.
I hope the weather in your place can get warm soon so that you can enjoy the warm spring early.

I understand what you meant when you said that there will beas a "second winter" in your place every year.

"Every year" implies that it's ongoing, so I'm using "was" instead of "would be."

In China, we have a saying called "返春".

It means that although it's already spring, there are still cold days like winter, wintry days at times.

I know about Wudang mountain and the Taoist priest in Wudang with excellent Kkung fu.

The same asLike you, I haven't been to Wudang eithere, so I am also very curious about everything about Wudang.

Or "as with you." "To Wudang" is fine, but it sounds repetitive.

But, I do know about a Taoist priest named Chen Shixing, and it is said that he has good light kung fu.

This is a bit repetitive, so you should have combined it with your earlier sentence where you said that you had heard of Wudang.

I hope the weather in your place can get warm soon, so that you can enjoy the warm spring earlyier.

"Early" here would probably be modifying "warm spring," but that wouldn't really make sense because it is presumably already past the beginning of spring. It makes more sense for us to use "earlier" to modify the verb enjoy.
