However, the calm is about to change. Since April 10, there has been a solar halo in many places in the south, among which the solar halo in Shenzhen is particularly eye-catching. And this solar halo is a sign that the weather is about to change. It represents the development of high clouds, the northward movement of warm and humid airflow, and the imminent occurrence of calm weather. Of course, this change does not include Shenzhen itself, where the solar halo occurs, and Shenzhen will quietly do its duty as a water vapor channel, which will be very humid and hot, but the overall weather will be calm.

The third is dust: between the strong cold and warm changes, the cold air will roll up the sand and dust of the Mongolian Plateau, bringing the first large-scale sand and dust weather in April to the north, and the possibility of subsequent sand and dust crossing the Huai River is not ruled out; Fourth, heavy rain, in the south, three consecutive rounds of rain run through the entire middle of April, especially from the 11th to the 13th, from Guizhou and northern Guangxi to Zhejiang, the heavy rain and strong convection will make friends in the south of the Yangtze River dream back to the end of March and early April in those days of intense weather.
On the other side of the world, on April 8, local time, North America ushered in the world's only total solar eclipse this year, and the Zhongqi Love Food Chasing Team witnessed the solar eclipse in Dallas, Indiana, Texas, etc. Since the total solar eclipse occurred in the dark night on the mainland, this total solar eclipse can only be watched by onlookers in China. Around the same time, Central and North Asia were experiencing the worst spring floods on record.

The snow in Kazakhstan and Russia's Siberian region has melted rapidly throughout the winter since March, and Astana has melted all 35 centimeters of snow in almost 10 days, and there is ice in the lower reaches of the river to block drainage, resulting in extremely severe snowmelt floods and flooding.
It is clear that extreme flooding in Central and North Asia is taking place against the backdrop of extremely rapid warming and excessive warming. In fact, the recent recovery rate of the mainland is also very rapid, in early to mid-to-late March and early April, the mainland is almost entirely warm, and this trend will not change in mid-April. Next, all kinds of intense weather will rise, and the intensity of rain, snow, wind, sand, and high temperature will increase. We remind everyone to pay close attention and be prepared.
