Since 1951, Beijing has seen temperatures rising above 40C on 11 days – and five of them occurred over the past two weeks. The city of 22 million has already seen a new record for its hottest day in June, with a high of 41.1C registered on June 22. China has been gripped by scorching heat waves for weeks, which authorities said had arrived earlier and been more widespread and extreme than in previous years.
The persistent heat waves have put huge stress on the country’s power grids as demand for air-conditioning soared, with some local governments urging companies and residents to curb the usage of electricity. Some train stations, including in Henan and Hunan provinces, have placed big blocks of ice inside the departure hall to bring down temperatures.
