A strong cold front has been sweeping across the northern and eastern parts of China since late Monday, bringing rainfall to many places, meteorological authorities said.
Since Monday, the northwestern parts of the country have been influenced by a mass of strong, cold air, which resulted in a big drop in temperatures in the northern part of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, the western parts of the Inner Mongolia autonomous region and Gansu province, and the northern part of Qinghai province, the National Meteorological Center said on Tuesday.
The sharpest drops in temperature were recorded in some areas of western Gansu, where the mercury fell as much as 15 C, according to the center.
The cold front has since been moving east and south, sweeping across most parts of the northeastern, northern and eastern parts of China.
The center said it expected temperature drops of up to 12 C in central and eastern parts of Inner Mongolia, the eastern part of North China, the southern part of Northeast China and the eastern part of Shandong province through Tuesday and Wednesday.
On Tuesday, many cities along eastern coastal regions, including Weihai in Shandong province, Zhoushan and Ningbo in Zhejiang province, issued yellow wind warnings.
Some province-level regions such as Beijing, Tianjin, Liaoning and Hebei issued blue warnings.
Chinese meteorological authorities use a four-tier color-coded weather warning system, with red being the most severe, followed by orange, yellow and blue.
