Temperatures will rebound moderately in most parts of China over the weekend, but rain and snow are expected to return next week, the country's meteorological authority said Saturday.
Temperatures will continue to rise in central and eastern China after climbing 2 to 4 degrees Celsius on Friday, the National Meteorological Center (NMC) said, warning that big temperature difference between day and night could affect people's health.
However, rain and snow will return in most parts of the country in the coming week.
The NMC forecasted that rains will linger in south China from Monday to Thursday, while snow flurries and occasional snow showers will blanket the eastern parts of northwestern regions, western parts of north China, northeastern regions as well as the Yellow River-Huaihe River area.
Meanwhile, the weather agency warned again about forest fire risks in parts of southwest China's Sichuan and Yunnan provinces which have received little precipitation amid higher than usual temperatures.
