  8. "Sina Visitor System" 【气温】今天新疆吐鲁番盆地和东北、华北部分地区出现高温。辽宁、黑龙江有10个国家级气象站,气温打破当地5月最高纪录(图2)。省会城市中,哈尔滨35.3℃、长春33.3℃、沈阳34.4℃,均创当地今年气温新高。哈尔滨出现今年首个高温,也是1961年以来5月第三次出现高温。 今晚到明天,会有冷空气东移,东北气温大幅下降。之后冷空气依然频繁影响内蒙古东部和东北地区,使得气温转偏低。哈尔滨明天降至24℃,4日最高降至18℃。长春4-6日最高气温也将持续低于20℃。和这个周末的炎热反差很大。而南方地区未来高温会从华南向江南扩展。 海口、南宁、福州、广州将陆续重返高温区,而且湿度大,天气闷热,体感温度更高。而未来3天华北平原、新疆多地,也会持续有高温,明后2天,吐鲁番盆地热度比今天更高。未来2天,天津、济南、郑州都可能出现今年首个高温,石家庄报6月2日最高39℃。总之华北到长江中下游多地,未来3天气温可能创新高。 (in Simplified Chinese). weatherman_信欣 on Weibo.
