  1. The national weather office said in a social media post that more than 20 stations posted all-time December lows in the early hours of Thursday.

    They included Hohhot, capital of the northern Inner Mongolia region, where a reading of -29.1 degrees Celsius (-20.4 Fahrenheit) broke a nearly 70-year record.

    Authorities have issued an alert for low temperatures across a vast area of northern, eastern and southeastern China.

    The brutal cold follows a summer of record-smashing heat and devastating floods across the country’s north.

    Experts warn that global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions makes extreme weather more likely.
