At present, China is in the small cold solar term, but the cold air force affecting our country is weak, and most of the south, which should be in the coldest season of the year, has ushered in a reverse warming. In the next four days (January 11-14), the temperature in many places in the south will continue to rise, and the highest temperature of the 20th line will reach the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and many places will be warmer than in the same period. China Weather Network has launched a big city warming calendar to see if it is as warm as spring in the cold season.
This week, although the cold air affecting our country is active, its strength is weak, and the affected area is northerly, and it will heat up rapidly after a short period of cooling, so the temperature in most parts of our country is generally higher than that of the same period in normal years. Zhang Juan, a meteorological analyst at China Weather Network, said that during the interval of cold air influence, the temperature in the eastern part of Northwest China, Huanghuai and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will reach recent highs this week, and the maximum temperature in southern Anhui, southern Jiangsu and most areas of Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi and Zhejiang may be more than 10 higher than the same period of the year, and the warmth is comparable to that of March or April all year round.
Judging from the big city warming calendar launched by China Weather Network, from the 11th to the 14th, most of the south will usher in a wave of continuous warming, especially in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, where the weather is mostly clear, and many places will reverse the temperature in the coldest season of the year, with a cumulative increase of 8 to 14 temperatures.
Among them, around the 14th, the maximum temperature in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will rise to the recent high, and the maximum temperature in Wuhan, Hangzhou, and Changsha will soar to 20 or above, which is rare in the same period of the year, and you may feel the warmth of spring during the day. South China generally reached the peak stage of this round of warming on the 15th, the highest temperature in Guangzhou was 24, and it was warm around noon.
Why is it rare to warm up in many places in the south during the Xiaohan solar term this year?Zhang Juan introduced that in the context of climate warming, in recent years, the fluctuation of winter temperature has gradually become normal. Since the end of 2023, although the cold air affecting our country is frequent, the overall force is weak, and the influence location is northward, and most of the south is currently in the intermittent period of cold air influence, coupled with the strengthening of southerly winds, helping the temperature to continue to rise, until the end of this week, many places will maintain a warm weather pattern.
However, this warmer state will take a turn next week. It is expected that from the 15th to the 18th, the central and eastern parts will usher in a large-scale rain and snow weather process, when the temperature in the above areas will gradually drop to the same level as the same period of the year.
China Weather Network reminds that most of the south maintains a warming mode this week, although the day is as warm as spring, but the minimum temperature is mostly in the single digits, and the cold is still hitting people in the morning and evening.
