China’s northern regions are on high alert as they prepare for extreme weather conditions.
Authorities have urged full emergency preparedness to counter the imminent threat of heavy rainfall. During a meeting held on Monday by the State Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters and the Ministry of Emergency Management, officials emphasized the urgent need for readiness.
The main rain belt is expected to move northwards in the coming days, bringing significant rainfall to the Sichuan Basin and the Huanghuai region. This area encompasses parts of several provinces, including Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu, and Shandong.
Residents in these areas are advised to stay informed about weather updates and follow any guidance issued by local authorities. Emergency services are on standby to respond to potential flooding and related incidents.
The shift in the rain belt underscores the importance of proactive measures in disaster prevention and mitigation. As extreme weather events become more frequent, coordination between national and local agencies plays a crucial role in safeguarding communities.
