The National Climate Center said that the overall temperature this summer was high and there was little rain. Will high temperatures become the norm in future summers?

At the beginning of summer this year, we did not realize the seriousness of the problem. It was not until summer had completely arrived and left, and the tail end of summer was still very hot, that we realized how serious the problem was. . And many people died in the high temperature this summer, which has to make us pay attention to this issue. Moreover, the climate this year is also very strange. Even with so much additional moisture, it does not rain. Severe drought has occurred in many parts of our country, and rivers and lakes have experienced severe water level drops. In Poyang Lake, the water level has dropped by more than 8 meters. This is a very serious signal. If it continues to drop like this, Poyang Lake may disappear from this world. So the question is, will high summer temperatures become the norm in the future? Let’s have a good chat about this topic.

According to my country’s climate research agency, China’s rare high-temperature weather since June is the most severe since comprehensive meteorological data became available in 1961. Chen Lijuan said that hot weather in summer is very common, but this time the high temperature and heat have great duration, intensity, and impact. It’s not just the weather, but deeper climate change.

She said that the IPCC’s 6th Assessment showed that since the mid-20th century, a large number of extreme climate events have occurred in the context of global warming, and the most prominent feature of this phenomenon is that : High fever and heat occur frequently. So, in this case, this high temperature weather will be a new trend, and this will continue to happen, and this will last for a long time.

Experts believe that under continuous hot climate conditions, appropriate irrigation and cooling measures must be taken to reduce the negative effects on agriculture; power supply and security must be provided to ensure the electricity needs of the people. Citizens should be careful not to engage in outdoor exercise on hot days, pay attention to replenishing body fluids, and also pay attention to preventing various infectious diseases caused by heat.
