When did the snowstorm happen? It is reported that this snowstorm happened in 2008. Since June 38, 2008+10/October 3, China began to cool in a large scale, and people were caught off guard by the freezing rain and snow, and almost more than 20 provinces were affected to varying degrees.

The cold wave is very harmful, but I didn't expect it to be so serious.

Some experts speculate that the reason for the snowstorm is related to the abnormal atmospheric circulation. It is reported that there was a blocking high pressure in the high latitudes of Europe and Asia, which led to the invasion of China from the north during the freezing period. At the same time, the moist warm air flow from Indian Ocean and other places is transported to South China, and the convergence of cold and warm air flow leads to the existence of low temperature, rain, snow and freezing weather. These different factors caused the snowstorm. After the snowstorm in 2008, many airports were closed and the departure time was changed, but most trains still started on time. If you encounter this kind of weather in the future, you must be prepared in advance.
