Cold air "relay" hits, widespread rain and snow in central and eastern China

China News Service, Beijing, November 6 (Reporter Chen Su) The reporter learned from the China Meteorological Administration on the 6th that a new round of cold air will affect China. It is expected that from November 6 to 9, there will be widespread rain and snow in central and eastern China, with local heavy snowfall.

Affected by the cold air, on the morning of the 6th, the Northeast, eastern Inner Mongolia, northern Shanxi, northern Hebei, Tianjin and other places experienced a temperature drop of 6°C to 12°C, and the local temperature drop in eastern Heilongjiang, eastern Jilin, and eastern Liaoning exceeded 14°C.

It is expected that on the 6th, there will still be a temperature drop of 4°C to 6°C in northeastern Inner Mongolia and the northeastern region, with a local temperature drop of more than 8°C, accompanied by winds of magnitude 5 to 6 and gusts of magnitude 7 to 9. At the same time, there is light snow or sleet in parts of northern and central Heilongjiang, eastern northern Xinjiang and southern Xinjiang basins, central Qinghai, eastern Tibet, and northern western Sichuan Plateau. Among them, some areas in northeastern Heilongjiang have moderate to heavy snow (5 to 8 mm). There were moderate to heavy rains in parts of eastern and southwestern Guizhou, central and southern Hunan, central Jiangxi, western Fujian, southwestern Zhejiang, southern Yunnan, western and northeastern Guangxi, and northern Guangdong. Among them, there were local heavy rains (50 to 60 mm) in southeastern Yunnan, northwestern Guangxi, and other places.

This weekend, the central and eastern regions will also be "controlled" by cold air. At the same time, the warm and humid air flow has strengthened, resulting in strong rain and snow in northern North China and other places. The scope of rainfall in the south has also expanded and the intensity of rain has increased.

According to meteorological experts, this round of heavy snowfall in North China is due to extremely strong southerly airflow, which transports sufficient water vapor to the north and interacts with the terrain, resulting in the possibility of local blizzards or heavy snowstorms. Cold air continues one after another, and the temperature fluctuates greatly in northern areas. The public should pay attention to adding more clothes when going out and take measures to prevent wind and keep warm. There will be significant snowfall in Hebei, Liaoning, Beijing and other places, with heavy local snowfall, which is detrimental to transportation. Please pay attention to safety when going out.
