Many parts of China are forecast to experience their lowest temperatures in decades over the weekend, with heavy snowstorms expected to persist in eastern and central areas.

Blizzards are expected to affect parts of Shanghai and Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Hubei and Hunan provinces.

Snowfalls will be as deep as 20 to 25 centimeters in some areas, the National Meteorological Center said on Jan 21. Chilly weather is also expected in many other areas.
