At a certain period every winter, a "strange" event will occur in the north - a cat grows on the radiator! Friends in the north only need a heating pipe in winter to get a cute cat. If you are lucky, you can also "grow" a large area, all of which are your favorite varieties.
Recently, it’s time to witness this strange event again, and a large number of northern netizens have posted their “harvests” on the Internet. The difference is that this year southerners are also lucky enough to experience the fun of long cats. For example, a netizen from Jiangsu said: "Before I went out, I noticed that there was a cat growing on the radiator, and it was still a long strip of cat."
Even a friend from Fujian said that his home did not have one, but a large litter of his favorite oranges.
It is natural for cats to be afraid of the cold. This year's phenomenon of "long cats" is no exception in the north and south. The weather is actually at play behind this. The weather station issued an emergency announcement two days ago. In the next few days, a new round of cold air will affect most parts of our country. By then, strong winds, cooling, rain and snow will take turns, and the temperature in some areas will drop by more than 10°C.
China Weather Network even claimed that this wave was "as cold as 39" and released a "National Freeze Cry Warning Map". It seems that this new round of cold wave must have extremely high "crying from cold" attributes.
Not long before the combination, the strongest cold wave this winter hit, freezing most of China overnight. As netizens said, this winter may be unbearably cold, and kittens who are afraid of the cold will naturally "grow" on more radiators.
In the cold winter, not only kittens, but also young people are also working hard to create a "warm winter" for themselves. During the recent period, despite the cold wind, consumers' consumption of warmth to "prepare for winter" has been in full swing.
Vipshop has great advantages in clothing sales. At the beginning of this month, the 12.8 sale was launched despite the cold wave, and warm clothing was sold out. At an event, the sales of Maoren increased by 287% year-on-year, Fenton's sales increased by 167% year-on-year, and the sales of down jacket brands Bosideng and Yaya2 increased by more than 180% year-on-year.
With the Double 12 promotion a few days later, consumption of warmth has set off another upsurge. As of 12 noon on December 12, sales of men's and women's down jackets on Vipshop increased by more than 50% year-on-year, and sales of children's down jackets doubled year-on-year . Sales of thermal underwear increased by more than 120% year-on-year.
The sales of electric heaters, hand warmers and other cold-proof artifacts have increased rapidly. Among them, the sales of electric heaters and hand warmers have increased by 185% and 501% respectively year-on-year. Sales of popular electric blankets have also increased more than three times year-on-year.
The cold wave is currently raging, and wherever it goes, it will be "quickly frozen". Even in some southern areas, cold air is already being prepared. Friends in the north should still minimize outdoor activities, and friends in the south should also be fully equipped to resist the "magic attacks" of cold air. Protecting your body is the most important.
