Shanghai to experience earliest winter in years?

It looks like our unseasonably beautiful October was the weather gods' way of offering us a bit of kindness before smacking us down with cold (ice cold) fists of fury. According to weather experts, Shanghai may now be heading into its earliest winter this decade. Usually, winter arrives in early or mid-December, but if this cold front continues, the daily average temperature would not have exceeded 10C since Friday and winter will officially be declared tomorrow - just in time for the first predicted snow of the season! So bundle up, especially since it seems these low temps will stay with us until the weekend.
