Extreme weather has an impact on all aspects of urban economy, society and ecosystem, including possible damage to infrastructure, reduced agricultural and forestry production, reduced industrial profits, and damage to biodiversity. Cities have strong sensitivity to climate change, and likely to amplify meteorological disasters. Here, we study extreme warm and humid faced by cities, analyze their change trends within typical city limits. On this basis, evaluate the possible risks under shared socioeconomic pathways. On this basis, the measures that city managers can take to reduce the impact of extreme weather on cities are put forward. It is hoped that managers can continuously improve measures based on actual conditions and lessons learned, aiming to create urban environments that are more resilient to extreme weather events.
