A powerful late-winter cold surge is about to rip across eastern China, delivering a sharp and rapid temperature collapse over the next five days.

Forecasts show temperatures tanking by 10 to 20C from the Northeast through East China as polar air drives south with little resistance. The drop will be abrupt, increasing the risk of flash freezing, transport disruption, and infrastructure stress.


Rain is expected to flip rapidly to heavy snow as the cold air undercuts moist systems moving in from the south.

Heavy rains swept across central and eastern China over the weekend, hitting provinces including Jiangxi and Hunan, with more downpours expected.

The National Meteorological Center (NMC) forecasts that over the next three days, heavy rainfall will gradually move eastward and southward.

Since Friday evening, torrential rain in Ganzhou city, Jiangxi, has raised river levels and caused localized flooding. Shangyou county was hardest hit, especially Dongshan township, where rising waters disrupted electricity and water supplies, submerged streets and swept away vehicles.

By 4:30 pm Saturday, the county government had relocated 1,147 residents across a number of townships. No casualties or missing persons were reported, according to local media.
