中国暴雨预警颜色代表什么?

B2时文329 词约 2 分钟

When China’s meteorological authority issued the first red alert for rain this year, many wondered what this highest-level warning really means. The country’s color-coded system is a vital tool that helps both citizens and governments prepare for dangerous weather. Each color speaks a clear language, guiding decisions from everyday outings to life-saving evacuations.

China uses a four-tier warning system with colors: blue, yellow, orange, and red. Blue represents the lowest risk, followed by yellow, then orange, and red the most severe. For rainstorms, these colors are based on the amount of rain expected within a certain time. For instance, a blue alert may mean 50 millimeters of rain in 12 hours, while a red alert can indicate over 200 millimeters in 6 hours or conditions likely to cause catastrophic flooding.
