Torrential rainfall has swept through the southern regions of the Chinese mainland, resulting in significant flooding and landslides. Local authorities are actively engaged in relief efforts to mitigate the impact on affected communities.
The National Meteorological Center has renewed a yellow alert for rainstorms expected to persist on Wednesday and Thursday across Jiangsu, Anhui, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Guizhou, Guangxi, and Guangdong. This falls under China's four-tier, color-coded weather warning system, where yellow indicates a high level of alert, just below orange and red warnings.
Residents in the affected areas are advised to stay vigilant and follow guidance from local authorities as heavy precipitation continues throughout the week.
