China News Service, Hangzhou, February 12 (Wang Yifei) On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the sunshine spreads in Zhejiang. The Zhejiang Provincial Meteorological Observatory predicts that the maximum temperature in the coastal areas of the province during the day on the 12th will be 16-18℃; in other areas, it will be 18-20℃. Next, the province’s temperature will reverse several times.
In the early morning of the 12th, the lowest temperature in most parts of Zhejiang Province was less than 5℃. Fortunately, the temperature increased significantly during the day and the sun was warm. The weather in Zhejiang Province is expected to be sunny to cloudy from noon to night.
In Hangzhou, Zhejiang, the weather has continued the "sunny + warming" pattern that has been going on for several days. Citizens and tourists are very enthusiastic about traveling. The queue for boating by the West Lake stretches for two to three hundred meters, and the scenic spots are even more crowded.
Zhejiang's warming channel is not ready to be closed, and it even has to press the "enhancement button". According to the Zhejiang Provincial Meteorological Observatory, starting from the 13th (the fourth day of the Lunar New Year), the highest temperatures in many places in Zhejiang will continue to exceed 20°C, making it seem like spring has entered early.
But then, the weather reversal drama will be staged again. On the evening of the 13th, Zhejiang became cloudy with some showers. The warm area will strengthen on the 14th, with mainly cloudy weather, and showers will appear before noon in northern Zhejiang. On the 15th, due to the influence of cold air and weak high-altitude troughs, there were light to moderate rains and local heavy rains in Zhejiang Province, while the temperature dropped. The temperature was low on the 16th, with the highest temperatures in many places in the province only around 10°C.
From the 17th to the 19th, Zhejiang Province has entered the warm zone weather again, with clouds playing the leading role and the temperature will be a "little rocket". For example, in Hangzhou, the highest temperature is expected to hit 26℃ on the 18th.
The meteorological department reminds that the temperature will fluctuate greatly in the coming week, and it is necessary to pay attention to the adverse effects of temperature changes on human health. At the same time, it is the Spring Festival travel season, and there will be precipitation from the 13th to the 15th. Please pay attention to the adverse impact on traffic. (over)
