Breaking records in a row! For the first time in the history of Beijing, a high temperature of 40 ℃ was achieved through three consecutive attacks
This round of hot weather has broken records again! According to China Weather Network, after the first consecutive two-day temperature exceeding 40 ℃ in the history of Beijing Observatory on the 23rd, at 13:51 today, the temperature at the Southern Suburb Observatory, representing the "Beijing temperature", once again exceeded 40 ℃, achieving the first "three consecutive hits" of 40 ℃ in history.
At present, the high temperature red warning is still in effect. In the coming week, high temperatures in Beijing will continue, and the public needs to do a good job in heatstroke prevention and cooling to be cautious of heatstroke.
At 13:51 today, the temperature at the Nanjiao Observatory, which is a representative meteorological observation station in Beijing, surged to 40 ℃, marking the first time in the station's observation history that the temperature exceeded 40 ℃ for three consecutive days.
Currently, Beijing is still experiencing its third heatwave this year. It is expected that in the next two days, after a brief decrease in the intensity of high temperatures in Beijing, there will be a prolonged battle of high temperatures in the coming week, with the highest temperature even exceeding 40 ℃ again.

The meteorological department reminds that in hot and humid weather, it is recommended to increase your lunch break time appropriately, replenish water in a timely manner, and try to avoid long-term outdoor activities during periods of high temperature. If you experience symptoms of heatstroke such as dizziness and chest tightness, you should immediately transfer to a cool and ventilated place to rest. If the symptoms are severe, you should seek medical attention in a timely manner.

The area of over 40 ℃ in the north has reached 100000 square kilometers, and the daily highest temperature in many places has exceeded historical extremes
Since the development of high temperatures in the north on June 20th, temperatures have rapidly risen. 21 national stations in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, and other places have exceeded historical extremes in daily maximum temperatures. Among them, the temperature in Dagang, Tianjin, and Tanghekou, Beijing has reached 41.8 ℃. The area affected by high temperatures above 37 ℃ is about 450000 square kilometers, and the area affected by high temperatures above 40 ℃ is 100000 square kilometers. It is expected that the high temperature weather in the north will briefly weaken from the 25th to the 26th, but starting from the 27th, the high temperature will continue to develop again and will continue until the end of this month.

The Central Meteorological Observatory continued to issue an orange high-temperature warning at 6 o'clock this morning. It is expected that from day to night today, the high temperature weather in the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region, Shandong, Inner Mongolia and other areas will still be above 37 ℃, with some areas exceeding 40 ℃.
High pressure ridge controls the rapid rise of temperature in North China Plain
It's not yet the third hottest day, and the weather is so hot. What is the reason for this strong high temperature?
Xia Wen, China Meteorological Administration: The main reason for this high intensity and long-term high temperature is that under the control of the high pressure ridge, the North China Plain continues to have sunny weather, and the temperature rapidly rises under the sun. And previously, the basic temperature in this area was high, which was due to heating up. Additionally, the low humidity and dry weather in this area are also conducive to an increase in temperature. Against the backdrop of global warming, the frequency of extreme high temperatures is rapidly increasing in both the south and north.

There will be two more significant high-temperature processes in North China, East China, and other regions
How long will the hot weather continue and what will be the climate trend this summer? Let's listen to the analysis of meteorological experts.
Zhou Bing, Chief Expert of Climate Services at the China Meteorological Administration: From the perspective of cities in the north, the National Meteorological Center predicts that there will be two more significant high temperature processes in North China, East China, and other areas in early and mid July. After entering late July, North China and other regions will usher in the North China rainy season, which may alleviate the high temperature phenomenon in the north. For southern cities, especially for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, it is currently in the Meiyu period, which is also the second round of heavy rainfall rainstorm in the Meiyu period. Therefore, this year's high temperature phenomenon in southern China is totally different from last year's because of its climate background. This year is the background of El Nino, and last year was the background of La Nina. El Nino is likely to increase precipitation in the south of the Yangtze River basin and other places. Therefore, this year's high temperature in the south is generally weaker than that in the south in 2022.
Dealing with high temperatures, preventing heatstroke, and diseases is crucial

So, what preparations and responses can we make in the face of record breaking high temperatures?
Major scenic spots and parks in Beijing, such as Yuyuantan, Xiangshan, and Taoranting, have successively issued heatstroke prevention tips through their respective platforms and park broadcasts, reminding citizens and tourists to pay attention to heatstroke prevention, cooling, sun protection, and sun protection during outdoor activities in hot and hot weather. Activities such as hiking and boating should be carried out according to one's abilities, timely replenishing water, and arranging park time reasonably.
Zhang Yanlin, Deputy Director of Beijing Yuyuantan Park: Many people come to the park with umbrellas, sunglasses, and hats. We have also taken measures to ensure everyone's park activities to the maximum extent possible. For example, we have been sprinkling water in the entrance area to cool down since the morning, and the tourist service center provides free drinking water and Huoxiang Zhengqi water and other heatstroke prevention drugs throughout the day. We also repeatedly remind in the broadcast to do well in heatstroke prevention and sun protection to prevent heatstroke.
According to hospital data, due to the sustained high temperatures in some areas recently, there has been a significant increase in heatstroke patients. According to the severity of heat stroke, it is generally divided into three types: heat spasms, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. Among them, heat stroke is the most serious, and in this situation, many places are also strengthening relevant reminders and safety publicity.

In fact, hot weather is undoubtedly the biggest challenge for many outdoor workers. In recent days, the temperature in Hebei, Shandong and other places has reached over 39 ℃. Many places with sustained high temperatures have issued relevant notices, requiring outdoor work to be stopped during high temperature periods. At the same time, outdoor workers are provided with water dispensers, disposable sanitary cups, open air conditioning, and heatstroke prevention materials.
Due to the high temperature weather accompanying the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, many citizens and tourists choose to enjoy the coolness by the water, and suburban waterfront scenic spots have also become a hot spot for travel. Therefore, preventing drowning under high temperatures has become a top priority for many scenic spots to strengthen prevention.
Xing Haijun, Safety Director of Longqingxia Scenic Area in Yanqing, Beijing: Due to the continuous high temperatures in Beijing these past two days, Longqingxia Scenic Area belongs to the canyon category, so our tourism reception has ushered in a small peak during the Dragon Boat Festival. To ensure safety and order, we have also done a lot of preparation work. For example, warning signs were made to prevent drowning, crowding, and trampling, and hardware facilities and equipment such as yachts and cable cars were repaired and maintained. All staff members also received safety training and conducted corresponding drills.
