Cold air causes a strong cold wave to move south, and both banks of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River may be hit by freezing rain.
Since February, China has continued to be affected by cold air, and the temperature in various places has repeatedly hit new lows. The National Meteorological Center predicts that from the 24th to the 25th, the strong cold wave will move south again, resulting in a large range of freezing rain on both sides of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and light to moderate rain will also occur in South China and other places, and the temperature will plummet by 10 °C. This will have a great impact on the lives of the majority of passengers returning from the Spring Festival holiday and the citizens who have returned to work.
Strong cold air is continuous, and cold waves frequently move south to plague our country.
According to the analysis of meteorological experts, the direct cause of the formation of this cold wave is the eastward extension of the Mongolian high pressure, and at the same time, strong cold air from the polar regions has poured into North China and Northeast China. Since the beginning of winter, the cold air from the polar regions has frequently moved southward, which has also made the overall temperature in China low this winter. "It has a lot to do with the La Niña incident. Zhao Yingmin, deputy director of the China Meteorological Administration, said that the current La Niña event near its peak will make the western Pacific subtropical high abnormally strengthened, which is conducive to the southward movement of cold air.
Watch out for freezing rain! The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River have become hard-hit areas.
Meteorological department**, this cold wave will have a greater impact on the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. There will be heavy snowfall in Jianghuai and Jianghan areas, and freezing rain will occur in southern Anhui and southern Hubei. Light rain will also occur in southern Guangdong. Affected by this, the minimum temperature in Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui and other provinces is expected to drop by more than 10°C. "It is necessary to prevent traffic accidents caused by freezing rain. Meteorological experts remind the general public that they must pay attention to keeping warm and cold when going out, and drive slowly to ensure safety.
The cold wave in South China hit Guangdong again, and it rained locally.
This cold wave will not only affect the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, but will also bring cooling and rainfall to South China. The minimum temperature will drop to 5-8°C in most parts of Guangdong Province, and the minimum temperature will even drop below 3°C in some areas, accompanied by light to moderate rain. The Guangdong Meteorological Observatory reminds the general public to pay attention to adding clothes to keep warm, and wear thick coats, scarves, hats, etc. when going out. Guangdong's tourist attractions and parks should also make preparations for the cold wave.
*Heavy snow in the southwest within 5 days and low temperatures will continue to affect tourist traffic.
In addition to the central and eastern regions and southern China, ** regions will also become one of the hardest hit areas by this wave of cold waves. The forecast released by the meteorological department shows that in the next 5 days, there will be heavy snow in Nyingchi, Nagqu and other areas, with daily snowfall of up to 20-40 mm. Under the influence of the cold wave, the minimum temperature in the region will continue to be low in the near future, which will have a certain impact on the tourism and transportation of the region. The relevant departments remind tourists to pay attention to meteorological information in advance and prepare to keep warm.
All localities should actively respond and strengthen the management of agricultural production.
In the face of the arrival of a strong cold wave, local meteorology, transportation and other departments have strengthened their on-duty duty, paid close attention to weather changes, and issued early warnings in a timely manner; The traffic police department strengthens road patrols and guides accident-prone road sections; The agricultural department should organize forces to inspect and inspect greenhouses to ensure the safety of facilities and equipment, strengthen crop management, and reduce agricultural losses.
Citizens and friends should also pay attention to keeping warm and cold, wear thick coats when going out, and drive slowly; It is necessary to do a good job in the use of heating facilities at home to prevent pipe rupture accidents caused by cold waves.
Expert**: The temperature will rise after the Lantern Festival.
In the long run, this cold wave process is a normal cold wave activity in winter. Meteorological experts pointed out that after this strong cold wave, the temperature in the central and eastern parts of China will gradually rise. It is expected that after the Lantern Festival, the minimum temperature in Jianghuai and Jianghan will return to above 0 °C, and the temperature in most areas will also rise to more than 5 °C, ending the continuous low temperature weather.
Before that, all localities should still strengthen precautions, make preparations for the cold wave, and ensure the safety of the people's production and life. Through scientific response, we will be able to survive this cold snap and usher in a warm spring.
