In the next 24-48 hours, the continental high pressure will weaken and gradually move eastward, forming a low pressure trough with an axis of about 25-28 degrees North latitude. Above, the subtropical high pressure with an axis passing through the South Central region is operating stably, then gradually rising to the North. Upper-level wind disturbances continue to be maintained over the Southern region.
In the next 3-10 days, the low pressure trough (axis about 25-28 degrees North latitude) connecting to the low pressure area to the West will be compressed and gradually move southward due to the continental high pressure strengthening in the North.
Above, the subtropical high pressure raises its axis up through the North Central region, and around May 11, it will descend to the South Central region and then weaken and gradually withdraw to the East.
Upper-level wind disturbances will remain until the end of May 8, then weaken and tend to be active again from around May 11-12.
