From the evening of January 7 to the next early morning, furry snowflakes danced lightly at Jinyun Mountain, Nanshan Mountain, and Gele Mountain in Chongqing's main urban area. Quite a few people set their alarm clocks and got up early to enjoy the snowscapes. Someone shot a video and said happily, "The urban area finally welcomed the first snowfall, though it's light."

Affected by several cold waves, most of the country welcomed low-temperature weather accompanied by snowfalls, but snowflakes never flew into Chongqing's urban area before. As the snow has fallen in other provinces and cities as well as high altitude localities in Chongqing, citizens in the city's main urban area cannot wait to see a snowfall while suffering from the discomfort brought by the cold.

On the evening of the 7th, it finally snowed. Jinyun Mountain, Nanshan Mountain, Gele Mountain, and other mountains in the main urban area welcomed light snow, with a thin layer of snow covering the ground and handrails. Through netizens' videos, we can see snowflakes falling one after another in Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications. After seeing the snow videos on the internet on the morning of the 8th, Mr. Jin planned to take his family up a mountain to enjoy the snowscapes. He said, "If it doesn't snow in the urban area, we would like to go to a nearby mountain."

Experts remind citizens to keep warm when going out to enjoy the snow. Putting safety first, people should be careful of the slippery road and concentrate when driving to the mountains.
