The waves beat against the rocks on the shore, and the seawater splashed on the guardrail on the shore, instantly freezing, as if it had entered the ice age overnight. This is the Weihai Circle in the Arctic Circle. The first wave of cold wave threatened Yantai and Weihai in Shandong Peninsula, with heavy snow, and the city buildings and streets were all white. Snowfall continues, and heavy snow has appeared in some areas. The average rainfall in Yantai is 4.6 mm, and there is a snowstorm of 10 mm in Laishan and High-tech Zone. The snow depth in Laishan is 36 cm.
The average precipitation in Weihai is 5.7mm, and the maximum snowfall point in Mishan, Wendeng District is15 mm. Yantai and Weihai continue to issue yellow warning signals and orange warning signals for snowstorms respectively. Affected by heavy snowfall and low temperature, roads in Yantai and Weihai are frozen and covered with snow, which has a great impact on traffic and blocked land traffic. The bus station passenger lines and intercity urban and rural bus lines under the jurisdiction of Yantai Transportation Group are out of service; More than 40 bus lines in Weihai were adjusted, and more than 10 lines were stopped. Snowfall also caused some trains passing through Yantai and Weihai to be delayed.
Yantai airport staff cleared the ice and snow, and the airport was temporarily closed due to heavy snow. Yantai and Weihai are doing their best to remove snow. Members of the local snow removal team braved the cold and carried out snow removal and anti-skid operations all night to minimize the harm of snow to traffic and pedestrian safety. Snowfall not only brings inconvenience to people's travel, but also brings rare beauty. A city in the snow is like a world of ice and snow. Along the coast of Yantai, the waves rushing to the coast freeze, forming a large area of ice scene, and the chains on the coast are covered with ice.
