China's tallest meteorological tower, located in Jiayuguan city in northwest China's Gansu province with a height of 94.94 meters, will be in use on September 10th, China Foto Press reports.

The tower, named "Bihaimingzhu", or "the Blue Sea and Shining Pearl", has eighteen stories above the ground.

The tower is surrounded by a steel framework featuring a dolphin propping up a ball. It contains a metrological radar.

The tower will provide extreme weather forecasts, such as gales, thunderstorms and sleet and play a key role in meteorological monitoring along the Hexi Corridor, the northwestern province's grain producing base.
