The freezing rain in Beijing came that year

On January 31, 2013, seven weather phenomena occurred in Beijing: fog, haze, rain, sleet, freezing rain (also called sleet), snow and ice particles. The air is heavily polluted. Icy roads caused by various weather phenomena caused more than 2,000 car accidents and four deaths. Some experts believe that the smog in Beijing has caused a high incidence of lung cancer. The Ministry of Health said that smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer, and air pollution is only a trigger. The city's smog and freezing rain became the first "scenery" in 2013.
