Life and Times in the Southern Capital
Weather
So every Chinese person I’ve talked to the last day or so has told me that it is going to snow in Nanjing in the next couple days, but here I sit and still no snow.
Looking on TV and the internet there doesn’t seem to be any info. It seems Chinese media isn’t as weather crazy as US media. Back in the states a significant portion of the local news is dedicated to weather, and when an impending storm is in the forecast they ramp it up ten fold.
It seems odd to me that the population is always talking about the weather, yet the media never seems to focus on it much at all. Even a couple years back when there was the historic snow storm in the area, much of the coverage was of the aftermath, nothing really on the forecast front.
Where can I get an accurate forecast and maybe some Doppler images, instead of just going by the word on the street?
