On the evening of December 28, a reporter from the surging news (www.thepaper.cn) learned from the Shanghai Meteorological Bureau that compared with the snow on December 25, the snowfall was larger, basically all over the city. Although the size is smaller than dandruff, so small that it can be landed on the ground, the instrument cannot be recorded, but it is still difficult to stop everyone's excitement, which small partner has successfully received the snow?

Where did this snowfall come from? The Shanghai meteorological department said that this morning, the temperature near the ground in Shanghai is low, and there are weak warm and humid air currents climbing in the high sky, warm and cold, so there are light sleets or light snow in Shanghai and the surrounding Suzhou, Wuxi and other places.

But where did the "six petals" of regular snowflakes go?

The Shanghai Meteorological Department explained that in fact, this is a solid precipitation similar to snow - xiàn ( also known as "snow seeds" and "snow beads", is a mixture of ice crystals and supercooled water droplets, usually white opaque spherical, diameter of 2 to 5 mm, the texture is brittle, after landing is not easy to jump back and easy to break.

Although these small snow seeds have sparked a heated discussion, today's body feels cold and cold. Due to the thick clouds over Shanghai today, the sunlight cannot penetrate, and the pace of heating is rather slow and heavy. In the afternoon, the temperature in each district only rose to around 5 to 6 ° C, while the relative humidity reached 40% to 50%, and the wet and cold magic was turned on again, so the body felt as if it was colder than the previous two days.
