A Shandong resident said, "The weather is really hot. I bring my child to a place with water, because it's cool. "

People in Tianjin are also wilting. The municipality registered a record high of 39 degrees, while ultraviolet radiation reached its highest level.

North China's Hebei province and central China's Henan province have also been roasting. Some cities have reached 41 degrees Celsius.

The Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region is another area that has been hit hard by the hot weather. The average temperature in most areas rose to over 37 degrees.

The heat wave has also hit several other provinces and regions, including Shanxi, Gansu, Jiangsu, and Hubei. Some areas have registered record-high temperatures for the season. Even drought has appeared in some areas, with about 180-thousand people finding themselves short on drinking water.
