NE China on orange alert for snowstorms  

中国东北等地迎来强降雪 暴雪橙色预警发布

继10日暴雪预警升级至黄色之后，中央气象台11日再次提高暴雪预警等级至橙色(仅次于最高等级红色)。预计未来三天，内蒙古东北部、东北地区大部将先后出现大到暴雪，局地大暴雪。

Beijing (CNS) -- The National Meteorological Center (NMS) on Sunday continued to warn against blizzards, raising the alert to the second-highest level for snowstorms expected to affect northeastern regions over the next three days.

The center issued an orange alert following Saturday's yellow one, a weaker ranking on China's four-tier color-coded warning system for blizzards.

In the 24 hours starting Sunday evening, heavy snow will hit southeastern and northeastern parts of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, northern Liaoning Province, and most of Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces, with some regions reaching up to 30 mm, the NMS said.
