今年首个暴雨红色预警拉响,多省受灾严重
China's national meteorological authority issued its first red alert of the year today, the highest level in the country's four-tier warning system, as relentless torrential rains continued to batter vast areas, triggering widespread flooding and landslides.
Since May, five separate rounds of heavy precipitation have lashed multiple regions, saturating soils and swelling major rivers to dangerous levels. The cumulative impact has overwhelmed drainage systems and destabilized hillsides, with the southwestern municipality of Chongqing activating a Level IV emergency response—the lowest in the national emergency framework—to coordinate rescue and relief efforts. Meteorologists caution that some locations may record up to 200 millimeters of rain in a single day, enough to cause severe inundation and rapidly rising waterways.
