The China Weather Network has reported that for the next couple of days, from October 23 to 24, the southwestern region of China and northern Xinjiang will continue to experience rainy and snowy weather. Additionally, Typhoon “Tammei” is expected to bring heavy rain and strong winds to areas like Taiwan. In terms of temperature, most parts of the country will see a warming trend over the next three days, while regions in central and southern North China and Huanghuai will experience some haze, requiring caution.

When we look at the specific weather patterns, yesterday saw a decrease in the scope of rain and snow across the country, with precipitation primarily affecting the northeastern and southwestern regions as well as Xinjiang. Monitoring data shows that from 8 a.m. yesterday to 6 a.m. today, some places in central and eastern Liaoning, eastern Jilin, and southeastern Heilongjiang experienced rainfall or rain turning to snow. Meanwhile, areas in southern Yunnan and western Guangxi experienced moderate to heavy rain, with some localized heavy downpours.

For today and tomorrow, the southwestern region and northern Xinjiang will still see significant rain and snow, with some areas in the northeast continuing to experience rain and snow today; however, precipitation is expected to taper off tomorrow. The impact from Typhoon “Tammei” will result in heavy rainfall on Taiwan’s eastern coast and surrounding areas.

Specifically, the Central Meteorological Observatory predicts that some areas in the Altai Mountains of Xinjiang, the western mountainous regions of southern Xinjiang, north and south Tibet, southwestern Qinghai, and eastern Jilin may see light to moderate snow or sleet today. Notably, parts of the Altai Mountains could experience heavy to severe snow. Additionally, parts of northeastern Heilongjiang, western Yunnan, and eastern Taiwan may have moderate to heavy rain, with some areas expected to see torrential or severe rain.

Looking ahead to tomorrow, light to moderate snow or sleet will likely occur in parts of northwestern and southern Xinjiang, southeastern and northern Tibet, western Qinghai, and the western Sichuan Plateau. Areas in the Sichuan Basin and western and northern Yunnan could see light to moderate rain, while eastern Taiwan may experience heavy rain, with localized areas at risk for severe rain.

On the day following tomorrow, there may be light to moderate snow or sleet in parts of northwestern and southern Xinjiang, northern and eastern Tibet, eastern and southern Qinghai, western Gansu, and the western Sichuan Plateau. Meanwhile, areas in central and southern Inner Mongolia, southeastern Tibet, southwestern Sichuan Basin, southern Jiangsu, eastern Zhejiang, and eastern Taiwan could experience moderate to heavy rain, with the potential for severe or torrential downpours in some regions.

Meteorological authorities are advising the public to be cautious during travel in the southwestern region and northern Xinjiang due to frequent rain and snow. Moreover, the combination of cold air and Typhoon “Tammei” will lead to strong winds in the East China Sea and northern and central South China Sea, urging passing vessels to prioritize safety during maritime operations.

Temperature-wise, much of the country is set to warm up. Yesterday, cooler air brought a noticeable drop in temperatures in parts of the northeast, with cities like Changchun and Shenyang seeing maximum temperatures fall below 10°C. This morning, many southern cities also experienced significant drops in minimum temperatures, with cities such as Hefei, Nanjing, and Wuhan seeing lows below 10°C, contributing to a chill in the air.

Over the next three days, as the influence of cold air weakens, most parts of the country are expected to warm up. Eastern regions of northwestern China, central and southern North China, and southern parts of northeastern China could see maximum temperatures surpassing 20°C. Cities like Lanzhou and Yinchuan are forecasted to have maximum temperatures around 20°C, indicating a significant warming trend.

However, haze will also develop, particularly in central and southern North China, Huanghuai, and the Fenwei Plain, leading to deteriorating air dispersion conditions and light to moderate haze. The public is advised to take precautionary health measures.

Following October 26, cold air activity is expected to return, which may cause temperature drops in some regions, prompting everyone to stay updated on forecasts and adjust their clothing accordingly to prevent colds.
