Beijing's meteorological observatory upgraded its blizzard warning level to orange — the second-highest — on Tuesday night, forecasting heavy snowfall from Wednesday morning to Friday in the capital.

The most severe part of the storm will roll through between 10 am and 8 pm on Wednesday, according to the forecast.

To cope with the blizzard, students of primary and secondary schools and kindergartens will switch to online classes rather than going to campus on Wednesday, the city's education commission announced late on Tuesday.
