At 6 a.m. on December 13, the ** Meteorological Observatory issued a yellow warning signal for heavy snow, ice and cold waves. It is expected that from 8 o'clock this morning to 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Hebei, Beijing, Henan and other places will encounter heavy to heavy snowfall weather, of which there will be heavy snowfall in Shaanxi. There will also be freezing rain in the southern part of northern Shaanxi and the eastern part of the Qinling Mountains, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei, Shandong and other regions. This is a widespread cooling and precipitation weather process that is expected to last until the 16th.
This cold wave comes from Xinjiang and will gradually cover the whole country from west to east and from north to south. According to the meteorological department, the minimum temperature in Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Northeast China and other places will drop to minus 20 degrees Celsius or even lower, while the minimum temperature in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and Shanxi will also drop to more than minus 10 degrees Celsius. Such severe cold weather will have a certain impact on people's lives and work.
On the web, this news quickly attracted widespread attention and discussion. Many people's first reaction is to pay attention to keeping warm, especially the elderly, children and some people with weak constitutions are more susceptible to the effects of cold wave weather. Some Weibo users have posted their thick clothes and hats to express their warmth experience. Others posted tips on Weibo to keep warm from the cold, reminding everyone to add clothes in time to avoid colds and other discomforts caused by cold weather.
For events similar to this cold wave, we can look back at the "Xuanwu Mountain Closure Incident" in 2018. At that time, Beijing suffered a wave of heavy snowfall, so the scenic spot of Xuanwu Mountain was temporarily closed. The timing of this cold spell is also quite coincidental, it happens to be a weekend, and many people may be planning to travel, and bad weather will definitely affect their travel plans.
The impact of this cold wave on society is also obvious. Due to the effects of snowfall and freezing rain, the roads may become icy, causing inconvenience to transportation. Public transportation will be disrupted to a certain extent, and there may be delays or cancellations on transportation such as planes and trains. In addition, a large number of people will use heating and insulation equipment in the face of a wide range of cold waves, which poses a certain challenge to energy**.
After several days of sustained efforts, some areas have begun to melt and clear snow and resume normal traffic operations. However, the impact still exists, especially for the handling of some emergencies and rescue work. For this cold wave event, we can see that the early warning and timely release of information by the meteorological department have played an important role, and the public's attention to their own safety has also been increasing. However, for some vulnerable groups and some people who do not have warm equipment, cold preparedness and relief work still need to be further strengthened.
