Scope
GB/T 21987-2017 is the English-translated version of 寒潮等级.
GB/T 21987-2017 is the Chinese national standard that grades cold waves, the large-scale invasions of cold air from high latitudes into middle and low latitudes that bring a sharp drop in temperature.
It defines the terms used, including the daily minimum temperature and its drop within 24, 48 and 72 hours. It divides cold wave intensity into three grades: cold wave, strong cold wave and exceptionally strong cold wave.
The grading uses two indicators for an area affected over a given period: the drop in minimum temperature and the daily minimum temperature itself. It applies to cold wave monitoring, forecasting, warning and assessment, and to scientific research.
It replaces GB/T 21987-2008, was issued on 14 October 2017 and has applied since 1 May 2018.

Foreword
This standard was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.
This standard replaces GB/T 21987-2008. Compared with GB/T 21987-2008, in addition to editorial changes, the main technical changes as follows.
--- Removed normative references (see Chapter 2 of the 2008 edition);
--- Removed the terms "cold wave process" "average daily temperature" and "average daily temperature drop range"; revised the term "daily minimum temperature" Definition; added the term "within 24 hours of cooling rate" "48 hours of cooling rate" "72 hours of cooling rate" (see Chapter 2, Chapter 3 of the 2008 edition);
--- Modify "Single Station Cold Tide Strength Level" as "Cold Tide Strength Level Division" and delete the original "4.3 Cold Tide", "4.4 Strong Cold Tide" and The "(or average daily temperature)" in "4.5 Extreme cold wave" (see Chapter 3, Chapter 4 of the 2008 edition);
--- Removed the "regional cold tide intensity level" and "national cold tide intensity level" two chapters and all contents (see the 2008 edition of Chapter 5 and Chapter 6).
Introduction
Cold wave is one of the major disastrous weather, it has the characteristics of large temperature range, wide range of impact, serious disaster and so on, not only will cause nationals Economy, especially agriculture and forestry, animal husbandry production, but also on people's lives, health have a serious impact and harm. for To unify and standardize the grading standards that affect cold spell in our country so as to standardize and standardize the forecast, early warning, research and prevention of cold waves In 2008, the preparation of national standards GB/T 21987-2008 "cold level".
For a long time, China's meteorologists have done a great deal of research on the cold wave standards. Due to the vast territory of our country, the natural geography around it Different in the environment, cold air activity varies greatly between the north and south, therefore, the cold surge standards adopted by different places are not uniform. The purpose of this standard revision is to simplify GB/T 21987-2008 content, the cold wave forecast, early warning services more standardized, standardized, scientific and operational.
1 Scope
This standard specifies the cold tide intensity level and its classification.
This standard applies to cold wave monitoring, forecasting, alerting and assessment and scientific research.
2 Terms and definitions
The following terms and definitions apply to this document.
2.1 Cold wave
Cold weather at high latitudes invaded the middle and low latitudes on a large scale, resulting in intense cooling of the weather.
2.2 Daily minimum temperature
The lowest temperature observed between the 14th day of the previous day and the hour of the 14th of the same day.
2.3 Daily minimum temperature drop range
The lowest daily temperature in a fixed period of continuous decline, the lowest temperature in the period of the lowest and the highest value of the difference.
2.4 24-hour decrease in temperature within 24 hours
The difference between the daily minimum temperature and the minimum daily minimum temperature within 24 hours after 14.00 on the day.
2.5 48-hour cooling rate
The difference between the lowest day minimum temperature and the lowest day temperature in 48 hours after 14 o'clock on the day.
2.6 72-hour decrease in temperature
The difference between the lowest daily minimum temperature and the lowest daily temperature in 72 hours after 14.00 on the day.
3 Cold intensity level division
3.1 Division principle
Using a certain area affected by the cold wave in a certain period of time the minimum temperature drop and daily minimum temperature of the two indicators to specific cold Tide level.
3.2 Intensity level
Cold wave is divided into three grades. Cold wave, strong cold wave, exceptionally strong cold wave.
3.3 Cold wave
So that a place on the minimum temperature within 24 hours of cooling rate >= 8 °C, or within 48 hours of cooling rate >= 10 °C, or 72 hours cooling
