Another cold snap brings heavy snow to northern China
0 
Another cold snap has hit northern China. Heavy snow has disrupted transport systems in Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and northeastern provinces.
Just as most people in Heilongjiang were thinking their harsh winter was over, a severe snow storm hit the northeastern province.
Out of the 5 major expressways linking the province to the rest of the country, four are closed and the remaining one saw at least 6 traffic accidents overnight. More than 200 long distance buses have been suspended and many trains have been postponed indefinitely.
In the provincial capital Harbin, the international airport was closed for more than four hours. More than 30 flights have been re-scheduled.
In neighboring Jilin province, the icy runways in its major airports also forced flights to be postponed. Thousands of passengers were stranded in the airports.
