At present, the solar term for the awakening of insects has come, and the pace of spring is moving rapidly northward. Spring in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River came a little early this year. Wuhan, Hangzhou, Changsha and other places have entered the embrace of spring. It is expected that from the end of this week to the beginning of next week, the temperature in many northern regions will rise significantly, and the maximum temperature can rise to more than 20 ℃. Beijing, Tianjin and other places in North China may start the process of spring in advance. Please check the national spring progress map to see where the steps of spring are.

Spring 2024 Progress Chart

Early Spring in Jiangnan

In the middle of February, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and many places in the south of the Yangtze River experienced a collective warming, which lasted for nearly a week and significantly warmed, greatly boosting the local spring process. From the latest spring progress chart launched by China Weather Network, As of March 6, the forefront of spring has crossed the Yangtze River and reached the Huaihe River basin. Most of Jiangnan, South China, Guizhou, eastern Sichuan, Chongqing and Yunnan have entered the embrace of spring.

"Compared with all the years, spring in many places in the south of the Yangtze River is obviously earlier this year, and many places have ushered in a meteorologic spring in the middle of February." Shi Yan, a meteorologist at China Weather Network, said that according to the latest standards for entering the season, Nanchang, Changsha, Wuhan and Hangzhou are all provincial capital cities.

Although many places in the south have entered the spring in the sense of meteorology, at the beginning of March, under the influence of continuous rain, many places became warmer and colder, including southern Anhui, northern Jiangxi, eastern Hubei, northern Hunan The temperature in northern Guizhou is lower than usual, and it is still cold physically 。

In the coming week, there will be more clouds in Jiangnan, South China and other places, and rain will still be frequent, with rainy days reaching more than 4 days. Due to the lack of sunshine, the temperature in the above areas is difficult to improve, and the temperature in some areas is lower than that in the same period of the year. The highest temperature in Wuhan in the three days from tomorrow is about 15 ℃, and the lowest temperature is less than 5 ℃, which makes you feel chilly.

"Rocket" heating up!

Spring in North China may come earlier

From this weekend to the beginning of next week, many places in the north will continue to warm up, especially in North China, the Huang Huai area, which will reach the recent high temperature from 10th to 12th, and the highest temperature in many places may rise to around 20 ℃. This will also promote the winter spring transition in the above areas, and spring in North China may come ahead of schedule after the 10th. In the middle of March, Xi'an, Zhengzhou and Jinan are expected to enter spring, and Beijing and Tianjin will also start the process of spring.

The pace of spring is approaching, but the temperature difference between day and night in most parts of the north is large, so we still need to pay attention to keeping warm. Especially in northwest and north China, the chill is still online in the morning and evening, and the temperature difference between day and night in some areas can reach 15 ℃. Like Shijiazhuang, the highest temperature on the 11th can climb to 18 ℃, which will set a new high this year, but the lowest temperature is only - 1 ℃, so you need to wear thick clothes to travel in the morning and evening.

China Weather Network reminds that when winter and spring alternate, the temperature fluctuates greatly, so it is necessary to properly "cover in spring" when dressing. You may as well take the "onion style dressing" when going out, especially in the neck, knees and feet where it is easy to catch cold. Keep warm and calmly cope with the temperature changes in the changing seasons.

Note: Spring standard is in accordance with the provisions of the meteorological industry standard of the People's Republic of China "Division of Climate Seasons". The 5-day moving average temperature series is calculated based on the current year's temperature series to form a moving average temperature series. When the moving average temperature series is greater than or equal to 10 ℃ for 5 consecutive days, the first date in the corresponding year's temperature series that is greater than or equal to 10 ℃ is taken as the spring start date, If the starting date of the first judgment is more than 15 days earlier than the normal year, the second judgment of the starting date is required.

The newly issued Division of Climatic Seasons in February 2023 stipulates that if the starting date of the initial judgment is more than 30 days (inclusive) earlier than the normal year, the starting date shall be judged twice/more times.
