💨 Abstract

A severe heatwave is impacting China's eastern seaboard, with temperatures expected to hit 37-40°C (99-104°F) in key regions. This early, intense heat raises concerns over droughts, economic impacts, and healthcare strain. The heatwave is stressing China's power grid, with record electricity demand driven by air conditioning. Officials warn of heightened heat stroke risks. Despite the heat, interest in Shanghai’s new Legoland remains high.
