But it will plummet by 10℃ within 24 hours... Shanghai’s highest temperature today of 34.9℃ is one step away from the high temperature day
Today, Shanghai hit its highest temperature so far this year, with the central urban area finally settling at 34.9°C, just one step away from the 35°C high temperature line. The sudden arrival of fine weather caught many people off guard and made the heat unbearable. The good news is, things are about to cool down.
Today, Shanghai issued its first high temperature yellow warning this year. The maximum temperatures at the Minhang and Qingpu meteorological monitoring stations were higher than those in the urban area, reaching 35.4℃ and 35.0℃ respectively. Coincidentally, the humidity in Shanghai is high today. With the help of sunshine, the body feels stuffy and hot, which is quite uncomfortable.
As temperatures soar, large amounts of unstable energy accumulate in the atmosphere. In the afternoon, stronger thunderstorm clouds struck, and scattered showers or thunderstorms occurred in most areas of the city. From 12:00 to 16:00 today, Jinshan Tinglin Town received the most rain in the city, with the cumulative rainfall reaching 30.4 mm.
According to the forecast from the Shanghai Central Meteorological Observatory, this wave of rain will continue until tomorrow. It is expected to be cloudy to overcast tonight with scattered showers or thunderstorms. Friends returning home late should pay attention to road traffic safety. Tomorrow, Shanghai will be cloudy to cloudy with showers or thunderstorms at times, and moderate to heavy rain in some areas. Rain has hindered the path to warming. It is expected that the maximum temperature will drop by 10℃ within 24 hours from today, and tomorrow the maximum temperature will drop to 24℃.
The city meteorological department reminds that there will sometimes be showers or thunderstorms during work hours on Monday. The road surface will be slippery on rainy days. Drivers should slow down and pay attention to safety. Starting from Tuesday, Shanghai will have mainly cloudy weather, with a short shower from Thursday night to Friday during the day, with the highest temperature ranging from 26°C to 29°C.
