Guangzhou, China – A sharp cold front swept through Guangzhou on March 28th, 2025, bringing a sudden and dramatic end to the city’s recent warm spell. Residents experienced a stark reverse spring chill (倒春寒), with temperatures in some areas plummeting by more than 10 degrees Celsius in a single day. The rapid temperature drop led many to joke that they experienced summer in the morning and winter in the afternoon.
The sudden shift, reported by China News Service, marks a significant change from the mild conditions Guangzhou had been experiencing. The phrase flash freeze (速冻) has been used to describe the abruptness of the cold’s arrival, highlighting the stark contrast in weather conditions within a short period.
This weather event underscores the volatile nature of spring weather patterns and serves as a reminder of the potential for significant temperature fluctuations. While the report doesn’t delve into the specific causes of this particular cold snap, such events are often linked to the movement of cold air masses from higher latitudes.
The impact of this reverse spring chill on Guangzhou’s residents is likely to be multifaceted, ranging from adjustments in clothing and daily routines to potential impacts on agriculture and public health. Further reports will be needed to assess the full extent of the cold snap’s consequences.
