The temperature in Beijing soared above 40 degrees Celsius on Thursday for the first time since 2014 as the Chinese capital warned of blistering hot weather through the weekend with the return of heatwaves that scorched northern China a week earlier.
A weather station in the city's southern suburbs considered to be Beijing's main gauge recorded 40.7C at 2:30 p.m. , according to the municipal weather bureau, the first breach of the 40C threshold since May 29, 2014.
In the small township of Tanghekou in Beijing's northeast, the temperature climbed as high as 41.8C, clinching the title of the hottest spot in China on Thursday. Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and Shandong in northern and eastern China were hammered by heatwaves last week, with the national weather bureau issuing an alert for heat stroke, almost a fortnight earlier than in previous years.
