Natural disaster 21 July 2024 At least 40 people are missing due to heavy rains causing floods in Sichuan province. Rescue operations are ongoing in the affected areas, with teams working tirelessly. More than 400 emergency personnel are working at the scene to find the missing individuals. China regularly experiences torrential rains, especially during the summer months, leading to frequent flooding. This week, two tropical cyclones are expected to bring storms and heavy rains to China’s eastern coast. One of the cyclones, named Prapiroon after the Thai rain god, is set to hit Hainan, China’s southernmost island province. Prapiroon formed in the South China Sea and is gaining strength as it moves towards land. Its center was approximately 280 kilometers from the city of Wanning as of the latest report. According to the National Meteorological Center, the maximum wind speed near its center will reach up to 120 km/h. Prapiroon is forecasted to bring heavy rains along the Guangdong coast, causing potential flooding. Guangdong is China’s most populous province, making the potential impact significant. Hurricane Gaemi, is expected to pass by northern Taiwan before reaching China. After passing Taiwan, Gaemi will hit mainland China as a powerful typhoon. Chinese meteorologists report that Gaemi’s maximum wind speed will be 180 km/h, posing a serious threat. Extreme rains have hit southern, central, and eastern China during this particularly severe flood season. The flood season started earlier than usual this year, causing widespread disruption. Record rainfall impacted southern China from April to June, leading to significant damage. Meanwhile, dry weather in the north has scorched fields, exacerbating agricultural challenges. The drought in northern China threatens the agricultural yield, affecting food supplies. Emergency services are on high alert across the affected regions, ready to respond to further incidents. Residents in flood-prone areas have been advised to evacuate to safer locations. Infrastructure damage has been reported in several provinces, complicating rescue efforts. Authorities continue to monitor the weather situation closely, preparing for additional storms. I welcome everyone to my channel, I want to thank those who support me and watch my videos.
