Adjust font size:

Heavy snow and fog in Wuhan, capital of central China's Hubei Province, blanketed the city and disrupted flights on Monday, according to the local airport.

 

The first snow of 2007 in Wuhan reduced visibility at the Tianhe International Aiport to less than 300 meters. Twenty-one flights were canceled and 32 delayed on Monday morning.

 

Airport operations returned to normal at 1:25 p.m. when the weather began to clear.

 

Heavy snow and snowstorms are expected to hit the east and south of the province on Monday evening, which could disrupt flights on Tuesday, according to a warning issued by Wuhan Observatory.
