From Friday to Sunday, a cold front is making its way, set to bring rare, sustained strong winds in the north, severe hailstorms in the south, and sandstorms in northwest China and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.
In Beijing, residents are preparing for a gusty challenge.

It almost feels like a scene straight out of an epic action movie!
Authorities advise everyone to stay alert and take precautions. Whether you're out exploring or just commuting, make sure to secure loose items and follow local updates. Stay safe and be ready to ride out this dramatic weather twist!
