Nanjing, China (May 2, 2025) – The Yangtze River Delta region is experiencing a dramatic weather swing this May Day holiday. After a period of sustained sunshine and localized temperatures exceeding 35°C (95°F), a strong cold front is poised to sweep in from the north, triggering a rollercoaster temperature shift and potentially severe weather conditions.
The China News Service (CNS) reports from Nanjing that the initial heatwave provided a summery start to the holiday. However, this respite is expected to be short-lived. The approaching cold air mass is predicted to clash with the warm, humid air currently blanketing the region, creating conditions ripe for thunderstorms and strong winds.
Residents and travelers in the Yangtze River Delta, which includes major cities like Shanghai, Nanjing, and Hangzhou, are advised to stay informed about the evolving weather situation and take necessary precautions. The sudden shift in temperature and the potential for severe weather could pose challenges for outdoor activities and travel plans.
Meteorological experts are closely monitoring the development of the cold front and will be issuing timely warnings and advisories to help the public prepare for the anticipated weather changes.
