The new coronavirus variant Omicron discovered for the first time in South Africa continues to attract international attention. "Black Friday" on November 26 was supposed to be a carnival day for retailers, but on this day, international financial market stock prices fell, the Dow Jones index hit its worst day in more than a year, and international oil prices fell by about $10 per barrel.
South African scientists have issued a warning that this new strain may destroy the new coronavirus protection that humans have slowly acquired in the past two years, with immediate and visible consequences. European health experts also said on the 2nd that Omi Keron may become the main spreading strain in Europe in just a few months.
As of 08:40 on December 3, Beijing time, 33 countries and regions around the world have reported cases of infection with the "Omi Keron" variant. In order to prevent the spread of the virus, Israel and Japan have announced a blockade of their borders.
Up to now, California, New York, Colorado, Minn US President Biden announced a new round of epidemic prevention measures on the 2nd. Among them, all international travelers entering the United States, regardless of nationality and vaccination status, will be required to provide a negative test certificate within 24 hours before departure.
The information vacuum surrounding Omi Keron, a new mutant strain of the new crown, is triggering new anxiety about the epidemic, which has clearly disrupted financial markets in the previous few days. Before clearer research conclusions emerge, the market may face uncertainty that lasts for several weeks.
Some financial analysts said that if more countries tighten their anti-epidemic policies, it may increase the pressure on supply chain issues that have been prominent since the end of last year, and continue to push up global inflation.
"At present, as a whole, the impact of the new mutant virus strain on the global economy will not be as severe as last year. The process of global economic recovery is still expected. However, in the face of repeated epidemics from time to time, financial markets will remain vigilant. Prepare for potential fluctuations."
Due to the greater-than-expected cooling rate in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Northeast China, the Central Meteorological Observatory officially issued a blue cold wave warning at 6 am on November 29. This is the fourth round of large-scale cold wave weather affecting our country since October this year.
However, the medium-term weather forecast of the Central Meteorological Observatory pointed out: In the next 10 days (December 3-12), the average temperature in northern Xinjiang, the eastern part of the northwestern region, and the north of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will be 1~3℃ higher than normal in the same period of the year, and the local temperature will be higher. 4~5℃; In the next 11-20 days (December 13-22), the average temperature of most parts of northern and northeastern China will be 1~2℃ lower than the same period of normal years, and the temperature of most other parts of the country will be basically close to the same period of normal year or more 1~2℃ high.
In other words, after November, when the cold air and cold waves are extremely active, around mid-December, most of our country will reverse to a trend of significantly higher temperatures! Did the four cold waves hollow out the air-conditioning in Siberia?
In fact, the previous forecast by the National Climate Center pointed out that the temperature in most parts of the country in December 2021 will be close to the same period of normal year (1991-2020 average) or higher, and the cold air activity will be significantly stronger in January-February 2022. In other words, the warmer December is still in line with the forecast, and it may turn cold later.
Recently, other regions in the northern hemisphere are experiencing cold waves. The lowest temperature at Nikkaluokat Station in northern Sweden was measured at -37.4 degrees on November 28, the lowest November record in the country since 1980.
The twisted westerly zone formed a wide deep trough over Europe, drew a large amount of cold air from the Arctic Circle to the south, and brought cold waves in many places. So will this westerly oscillation trigger a cold wave in our country?
In the short term, the cold wave still favors Europe and the United States. The weather in my country is generally calm and the cold air is weak. However, such violent fluctuating energy is buried in the circulation system of the northern hemisphere, so the evolution of the westerly zone in the later period still requires great attention, which may contribute to the winter cold wave in my country.
