Warm days ahead, though spring has not arrived
Print Edition
THERE will be a spring feel to the weather this week, with a mixture of sunshine and rain but generally higher temperatures, forecasters said.
Today’s high could be as much as 15 degrees Celsius, with a low of 6 degrees, they said.
The pollution seen yesterday — when the PM2.5 density rose to 162.6 milligrams per cubic meter, or more than double the national standard — should subside today.
“Southeasterly winds (today) should help to disperse the smog, while the rains forecast for Wednesday will also help the situation,” said Man Liping, a chief service officer at the Shanghai Meteorological Bureau.
A colder air mass from the north is set to start moving in tomorrow and that should bring some rain, though temperatures should still be in the range of 9 to 15 degrees. Thursday will see a slight dip to between 6 and 11 degrees, the forecasters said.
Friday will see the high return to 14 degrees, with a low of 3, while sunshine and a high of 15 are promised for Saturday.
Despite the generally warmer weather, forecasters will not commit to the arrival of a meteorological spring, which is called when average temperatures remain above 10 degrees for five consecutive days.
The smog that has been affecting north China should begin to disperse today with the arrival of a cold front, the National Meteorological Center said. However, it would not say if the bad air situation would relocate to Shanghai.
“Smog is most likely when there is a high concentration of particles in the air and certain dry, stable weather conditions,” said Zhang Ruiyi, also a chief service officer at the meteorological bureau.
