Strong cold air moving southward from Siberia will bring lower
temperatures, strong winds and even snow to most parts of northern
China over the next two to three days, China's Central
Meteorological Station forecast on Sunday.
The cold front is expected to bring temperatures down by four to
eight degrees Celsius in most areas of north China, western part of
northeastern China as well as Ningxia Autonomous Region and the
northern part of Shaanxi Province.
In the eastern part of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the
temperature will drop by 10 to 13 degrees.
Meanwhile, snow is expected in parts of Inner Mongolia and
northeast China.
Strong winds at force five to seven will sweep northeast China
and most parts of north China including sea areas, said the
station.
The station reminded the public of taking necessary precautions
against the forthcoming strong wind and temperature slump.
