Blazing hot in Shanghai
YESTERDAY’S sizzling weather triggered this year’s first heat alert in Shanghai, as the high topped 35 degrees Celsius, the meteorological bureau said.
The bureau issued a yellow alert, the lowest of its four-color system, at 12:30pm, warning the temperature would hit 35 degrees in the afternoon because of a subtropical high-pressure system.
The sweltering weather will continue until tomorrow, when showers and winds will bring the highs down to around 33 degrees before returning to over 35 on Sunday.
Apart from the heat, humidity is also high. Residents are advised to wear sun block when going out.
