As台风 Mogher continues to bring heavy rainfall to southern China, the National Meteorological Department has issued warnings for severe weather conditions in Guangxi and Yunnan provinces. Meanwhile, northern regions are experiencing cooler temperatures due to rainfall and the arrival of cold air. Here is a comprehensive overview of the national weather situation.
Severe Rainfall in Guangxi and Yunnan
Affected by the remnants of台风 Mogher, parts of Guangxi and Yunnan are experiencing intense rainfall, with some areas seeing heavy暴雨 (downpours). According to the Central Meteorological Observatory, the regions most affected include western and southern Guangxi, and southern Yunnan. These areas are bracing for potential secondary disasters such as floods, landslides, and mudslides.
The remnants of the typhoon, which had previously made landfall in Vietnam as a super typhoon, continue to move westward at a speed of 5-10 kilometers per hour. While the storm has weakened to a tropical storm, it is still capable of producing significant rainfall. Yesterday, parts of Guangxi, Guangdong, and Yunnan experienced暴雨 or 大暴雨 (heavy downpours), with some areas in Guangxi’s Fangchenggang and Qinzhou recording extremely heavy rainfall.
Rainfall and Cooling in Northern Regions
In contrast, the northern parts of China are experiencing a bout of cooler weather due to rainfall and the influence of cold air. The rainfall is expected to bring a temperature drop of 4-6°C in many areas, with some regions seeing an 8°C drop and parts of the northwest experiencing a 10°C decrease. For instance, the city of Xining is predicted to see a high of 25°C today, which will drop to 15°C tomorrow. Similarly, Lanzhou will see a high of 28°C today, which will decrease to 17°C tomorrow.
This change in weather is a welcome relief from the summer heat, but it also requires the public to adjust their clothing accordingly. The cooler weather is expected to persist in the coming days, with further rainfall predicted in the regions.
Extended High Temperatures in the South
While the north is cooling down, the south is experiencing an extension of high temperatures. The high temperature range is expected to expand northward to southern Shaanxi, Henan, and Hebei provinces. However, starting from September 11th, the high temperature weather in the south will begin to subside due to the southward movement of cold air from the north.
One notable exception is the Sichuan Basin, which is expected to experience prolonged high temperatures. The city of Chongqing is predicted to see consecutive days of high temperatures, potentially setting a new record for the longest stretch of high temperatures in September. With temperatures often reaching 38-39°C, the public is advised to take precautions against heatstroke and heat exhaustion.
Public Safety and Preparedness
The meteorological department has issued warnings and advisories for the affected regions. In Guangxi and Yunnan, authorities are urging residents to be vigilant against potential secondary disasters. In the north, the public is advised to pay attention to weather forecasts and be mindful of traffic safety during rainy conditions.
The rainfall in the south and the cooler weather in the north are expected to persist over the next few days, with the situation being closely monitored by the National Meteorological Department. As always, staying informed and prepared is key to navigating these weather conditions safely.
In conclusion, while台风 Mogher continues to impact southern China with heavy rainfall, the northern regions are enjoying a respite from the summer heat. The national weather overview underscores the importance of staying informed and prepared for the diverse weather conditions affecting different parts of the country.
