On August 4th, news came from Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province, which was hit by severe flooding disasters——
All 28 villages with hidden risks of disconnection have been investigated, and a total of 402 villages in the city have been contacted. The waterlogging on the main roads in the urban area has basically subsided, and power has been restored to 75 residential communities that were cut off due to the disaster.
At the same time, a total of 1.5897 million people have been relocated in Hebei Province, including 961200 people from flood storage and detention areas. All highways have been fully opened to ensure the safety of people's lives and property.
In late July, it is the main flood season in China, with seven days down and eight days up.
On the 28th, Typhoon Du Suri, the 5th of this year, made landfall along the coast of Fujian. Unlike other typhoons that gradually weaken after landfall, Dussuri continues to travel long distances, with precipitation clouds gradually moving northward and approaching the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region.
The latest forecast from the Central Meteorological Station indicates the powerful "power" of "Du Suri" - from July 29 to August 1, there will be heavy rainstorm in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, western Shandong, northern Henan and eastern Shanxi, and extremely heavy rainstorm in piedmont and south of western Beijing and central and southern Hebei. Meteorological experts remind us that this round of heavy rainfall is highly extreme and poses a high risk of causing disasters.
