Autumn tigers are coming in the south, and many places in the north are welcoming cooling temperatures
At the beginning of September, autumn tigers are rampant, and there are still large-scale high temperature weather in the south, Shaanxi High temperature weather of 35 to 39°C occurred in the south, Sichuan Basin, eastern Guizhou, southern Jianghan, Jiangnan, and most of South China, and local 40 to 42.4°C occurred in northeastern Sichuan, Chongqing, northern Hunan, and Hubei Yichang and Xianning.

Among the big cities, Chongqing, Changsha, and Nanchang will continue to experience high temperatures in the next seven days. Among them, Chongqing will still frequently hit 40°C. Not only is it unbearably hot during the day, but it is also so hot that it is difficult to sleep at night. The lowest temperature in the above-mentioned cities can generally approach or reach 30°C.
In the next few days, warm high pressure will continue to control most of the south, high temperature weather will continue to develop, and autumn tigers will be very ferocious. During the day today, there were 35 to 36 people in southern Anhui, southern Jiangsu, most of Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, central and western Zhejiang, western and southern Fujian, central and eastern Sichuan Basin, Chongqing, eastern and northern Guizhou, eastern Guangxi, and most of Guangdong. °C high temperature weather. Among them, the highest temperature in some areas such as southern Anhui, southern Hubei, central and northern Hunan, central and northern Jiangxi, western Zhejiang, eastern Sichuan Basin, most of Chongqing, northern Guizhou, central Guangdong and other places is 37 to 39 °C, and the highest temperature is 37 to 39 ° C in the northeastern Sichuan Basin. In central and southern Chongqing and other places, local temperatures can reach over 40℃. For this reason, CCTV continued to issue a high temperature yellow warning this morning.

However, for most areas in the north, the cold air is becoming increasingly active, and the temperature will drop in the next few days. Many places can feel the coolness like autumn. Most areas in the north will have a temperature drop of 4 to 8 degrees Celsius. Some areas in Xinjiang, Gansu and other places will have a temperature drop of more than 10 degrees Celsius, accompanied by winds of level 4 to level 6. Winds in mountain passes in Xinjiang can reach level 10 to level 12.
After the cooling, the maximum and minimum temperatures in most of the northwest, western and northern parts of North China, and most of the northeast will gradually drop below 25°C, and in some areas it will be less than 20°C. This round of cooling will further promote the process of autumn in the north. Lanzhou, Yinchuan, Taiyuan, Changchun and other areas where autumn is late may officially enter the embrace of autumn in the near future.
In addition to cooling, most areas in the north will also experience multiple rounds of rainfall. Today and tomorrow, there will be light to moderate rain from west to east in the Northwest, North China, Northeast and other places, with local heavy rain or heavy rain. Generally speaking, although the precipitation range in the north will be large today and tomorrow, the accumulated rainfall will be small and the convection is not strong. However, from the 6th to the 8th, there will be another rainfall process in the north.
Can Typhoon "Capricorn" defeat the high temperature?
The Central Meteorological Observatory issued a typhoon blue warning at 10:00 on September 3: The center of this year's No. 11 Typhoon "Capricorn" (tropical storm level) will be located at 8 o'clock today (3rd) The northwest coast of Luzon Island in the Philippines is at 18.2 degrees north latitude and 119.7 degrees east longitude. The maximum wind force near the center is level 9 (23 meters/second), the minimum air pressure in the center is 990 hectopascals, and the radius of the level 7 wind circle is 150-250 kilometers.
predicts that "Capricorn" will move west-northwest at a speed of about 10 kilometers per hour, and will soon enter the eastern part of the South China Sea, and then will approach the east part of Hainan Island. Its intensity will gradually increase, and it will be over Hainan Island during the day on the 6th. It will make landfall along the coast from the east to western Guangdong. It is expected that the maximum wind force near the center will be 14-15 levels (42-50 meters/second, strong typhoon level) when it makes landfall. It will then pass through Hainan Island and move into the Beibu Gulf in the early morning of the 7th.

After comprehensive research and judgment, the China Meteorological Administration launched a typhoon level four emergency response at 14:00 today to fully respond to Typhoon "Capricorn".

Judging from the temperature forecast, starting from September 6, the area with severe heat above 37℃ will be significantly reduced. However, there is still great uncertainty about the path and impact of future typhoons, so stay tuned.
Climate experts answer high temperature: the superposition of three major factors affects
htmlOn September 2, Ren Guoyu, a professor at China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) and former chief expert of the National Climate Center, said in an interview that the Yangtze River where cities such as Wuhan, Chongqing, Shanghai, and Nanjing are located In the river basin, including the Sichuan Basin, the duration and intensity of high temperatures during the drought period this summer are indeed different from normal years, and will continue for at least a week. The cloud cover and precipitation caused by periodic atmospheric circulation abnormalities are extremely low, coupled with the dry air, resulting in ground The strong sunlight is the direct factor causing this climate phenomenon.Ren Guoyu said that the extreme high temperatures in my country's Yangtze River Basin in the past month were mainly affected by the high-altitude Western Pacific subtropical high and the South Asian high. Both high voltages are very strong and almost integrated into one. In areas controlled by high pressure, downdrafts prevail, the sky is clear and cloudy, and it is difficult to form clouds and cause rain. Solar radiation is strong, and heating near the ground is intense. Due to the extremely strong and stable high-pressure system this summer, it is easy to form persistent abnormally high temperature weather under its influence.
Due to the very little precipitation during the drought period, and the significantly less precipitation in the Jiangbei and Sichuan basins during the Meiyu period, the soil moisture content is very low, and the heat cannot be consumed through water vapor evaporation. Most of it is used to heat the air near the ground, further enhancing the The intensity of high-temperature heat waves has increased, forming a vicious cycle.
Ren Guoyu said that in addition to the above factors, the continuous improvement of air quality in my country's Yangtze River Basin also has a certain impact on the recent high temperatures. For example, in the past, air pollution in the Sichuan Basin was relatively heavy, and there were many fog and haze days. The sky was often foggy, and it was difficult for sunlight to reach the ground directly. After years of air pollution control, the air quality has improved significantly and the air has become cleaner. Direct sunlight hits the ground and the ground is heated more strongly. When factors such as atmospheric circulation are abnormal, the ground temperature will be higher during the day.
According to predictions, after mid-September, the high temperature phenomenon across the country will be significantly alleviated, and the cool autumn is just around the corner.
