Since July, the number of high-temperature days in the Huanghuai, Jianghuai, Jianghan, and Jiangnan regions of China has generally ranged from five to eight days, with some areas experiencing continuous high temperatures for nine to 13 days, according to the China Meteorological Administration.
In the past two days, this round of high temperatures entered its peak phase, with 1,400 national meteorological observation stations in 29 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) recording temperatures above 35 C, People's Daily reported, citing the administration.
The maximum temperatures in Xi'an, Xianyang, Baoji, and other locations in Northwest China's Shaanxi Province exceeded 42 C, while the Dongkan National Meteorological Observation Station in Turpan, Xinjiang recorded temperature of 45.7 C.
Over the past two days, maximum temperatures at eight national meteorological observation stations broke historical records.
In the first week of July, more than 100 national meteorological observation stations across the country broke nighttime temperature records. For example, in Jinan, Shandong, the daily minimum temperature stood at 29 C, the administration said.
Data shows that since 2000, the number of days with minimum temperatures above 28 C in Beijing, Tianjin, Zhengzhou (Henan), and other places has increased significantly. In Nanchang, Jiangxi, such days have risen from an average of five to seven per year at the end of the last century to 21.7 days in the past decade, according to the administration.
According to the forecast of the National Meteorological Centre, in the coming week, high temperatures above 35 C will persist in southern and central Hebei, Huanghuai, Jianghan, Jianghuai, Jiangnan, Guanzhong in Shaanxi, and the Sichuan Basin, with the maximum temperature in some areas reaching 39 to 42 C. The heatwave is expected to ease starting from July 21.
