Beijing, December 10 (Xinhua) — Due to the approach of a powerful cold front, Beijing is expected to see its first heavy snowfall of the winter season on December 12, the Beijing Meteorological Station reported on Wednesday.
According to the forecast, moderate snowfall is expected in most areas of the city, with heavy snowfall in some southern and mountainous areas.
Chief meteorologist Zhang Linna noted that snowfall will begin in the capital's western mountainous regions early on the morning of December 12, then spread to the surrounding plains. Peak intensity is expected from midday to late evening, with the snowfall easing and ceasing overnight in the plains and continuing in the mountainous regions until the morning of December 13.
A sharp drop in air temperature is expected: on the night of December 12-13, the thermometer will drop to minus 10 degrees Celsius.
Beijing meteorological authorities warned that snowfall would make roads slippery and reduce visibility. This would increase the risk of traffic jams and accidents, especially in mountainous areas.
