English: Snow cover encircles Bo Hai and extends to the north and west of that water body. Snow also covers Beijing, Tianjin, and a constellation of smaller settlements. The large cities leave big grey splotches on the blanket of snow, and the smaller cities make small grey dots. Snow caps the mountains north and west of Beijing, but the snow cover gradually fades south-west of Beijing and Tianjin. Cloud streets—clouds arranged in neat rows—similar to those observed over Hudson Bay and the Great Lakes float over Bo Hai.
