Dongfang.com reporter Bai Kelin reported on August 17: Shanghai has spent another day in the yellow warning of high temperatures. Some citizens wondered: "It's already autumn and it's still so hot, is it the autumn tiger coming?" ”
According to the Department of the Municipal Meteorological Bureau, the "Autumn Tiger" usually refers to the high temperature weather that occurs briefly after the beginning of autumn or the beginning of the year. However, the mainland is vast, and the timing and performance of the "autumn tigers" vary from place to place. The meteorological definition of "autumn tiger" in Shanghai is the phenomenon that the daily maximum temperature is greater than or equal to 35°C for more than 2Z days (including 2 days) in early and mid-September. Therefore, the current high temperature is not strictly considered an "autumn tiger".
So, when will Shanghai cool down? According to the weather forecast, it will be mainly cloudy in Shanghai tomorrow, with short-term showers or thunderstorms in the afternoon. The temperature is between 28~34°C. Next Tuesday and Wednesday, the subtropical high will have a brief westward extension and strengthening, and the intensity of the high temperature will be slightly increased, but it will not last for a long time. Around next Thursday, due to the intersection of cold and warm, there will be a more obvious precipitation weather process in the city, and the temperature will also drop slightly.
