CCTV News: At 6pm on July 25th, the Central Meteorological Administration issued an orange typhoon warning, while the Ministry of Water Resources and the China Meteorological Administration jointly issued a yellow warning for flash floods.

The center of Typhoon Du Suri, the 5th typhoon of this year, was located at 5 pm on July 25th, approximately 445 kilometers southeast of E Luan Bi in Taiwan Province, China, on the northwest Pacific Ocean. The maximum wind force near the center was above 17.

It is expected that Typhoon "Dussuri" will gradually approach the southern coast of Taiwan Island, move into the northeast of the South China Sea on the 27th, and then approach the coastal areas from central Fujian to eastern Guangdong. Look at today's CCTV News report.

△ On July 25, CCTV News reported that China has entered a critical period of flood control, and the situation of flood control and drought relief is generally stable

Typhoon "Dussuri" hits multiple provinces and initiates emergency response

To prevent the impact of Typhoon Du Suri, Fujian Province has raised the emergency response level for typhoon prevention to Level III.

Local government staff use WeChat, text messages, cloud broadcasts, and other means to timely push "typhoon warning information" to fishermen and fish farming households. At the same time, it is required that all offshore fishing vessels must arrive at the nearby port for shelter before 12:00 on July 26th, and all personnel on board must be evacuated and ashore.

Affected by Typhoon Du Suri, the Quanjin route, Huangma route, Liangma route, and some cross-strait "small three links" routes have been suspended one after another.

Starting from the 26th, Fujian Province is expected to experience a significant precipitation process, with rainfall ranging from 150 to 350 millimeters and locally 500 millimeters.

In addition, on the night of the 24th, Zhejiang and Guangdong provinces have also launched emergency responses for typhoon prevention at sea. Fire departments in multiple regions have gathered teams in advance, been on duty 24 hours a day, comprehensively inspected rescue equipment, and faced the 5th typhoon of this year, Dussuri.

At the routine policy briefing of the State Council on July 25th, Yu Haifeng, Director of the Geological Exploration and Management Department of the Ministry of Natural Resources, succinctly stated that during typhoons, the focus of maritime prevention is "ships must enter the port and people must dock", while the focus of onshore prevention is the sharp increase in landslide and debris flow risks caused by heavy rainfall.

The flood control and drought resistance situation remained stable during the critical period of "Seven Down and Eight Up"

Not only has the typhoon hit again, but now China has also entered a critical period of flood prevention with seven downturns and eight upturns. The flood and drought conditions in various regions directly affect people's normal production and life.

Since the beginning of this year, the overall precipitation in China has been relatively low, with an average precipitation of 323 millimeters, which is more than 10% lower than the same period in previous years. The main rivers have not experienced numbered floods. This year, 282 small and medium-sized rivers have experienced floods above the warning water level, which is less than the same period in previous years.

Statistics show that compared with the average of the same period in the past five years, the number of people affected by floods has decreased by 4.9%, the number of deaths and missing persons due to disasters has decreased by 85.1%, the number of emergency relocation and resettlement has decreased by 90.4%, and direct economic losses have decreased by 76% since the beginning of this year; The number of people affected by drought disasters decreased by 50.2%, and the affected area of crops decreased by 44.4%.

At the routine policy briefing of the State Council on July 25th, Wang Daoxi, Deputy Minister of Emergency Management and Deputy Minister of Water Resources, said that the overall situation of flood control and drought relief in China is stable.

On July 24, 2023, a sheltered fishing boat docked at the fishing port in Taizhou, Zhejiang.

Meteorological conditions in August predict that temperatures in most regions may be slightly higher

In the next week, Typhoon No. 5, Dussuri, will be the focus of meteorological department attention.

Wang Yawei, the head of the Emergency Disaster Reduction and Public Service Department of the China Meteorological Administration, predicted that the typhoon "Dusurai" would land in the coastal areas from central Fujian to eastern Guangdong around the 28th. Affected by it, there would be heavy to rainstorm in Taiwan Island, eastern Zhejiang, Fujian, eastern Guangdong, eastern Jiangxi and southern Jiangxi, and there would be heavy to extremely heavy rainstorm in some areas such as eastern and southern Taiwan, central and southern Fujian, and eastern Zhejiang.

After the 28th, Typhoon Dussuri will penetrate inland and move northward, causing further impact on the eastern region of China.

In addition, Wang Yawei predicts that in August, temperatures in most parts of China will approach the same period as usual and become slightly higher.

The routine policy briefing of the State Council on July 25th also introduced the standardization, professionalization, and professionalization process of the national comprehensive fire rescue team.

Since the beginning of this year, as the national emergency rescue "national team", the figure of the national comprehensive fire rescue team has timely appeared in the rescue of mountain floods and mudslides in Wenchuan, Sichuan, urban waterlogging rescue in Beihai, Guangxi, heavy rainfall rescue in Wanzhou, Chongqing, mudslides rescue in Gannan, Gansu, and firefighting rescue in response to typhoon "Taili"

The national comprehensive fire rescue team has the ability to carry out cross regional rescue tasks within and outside the jurisdiction and province. As of July 24th, a total of 1174 people in distress and trapped have been rescued, and more than 7200 people have been evacuated and transferred.

Currently, it is the hot summer and rainy season, and health experts remind us once again that floods can easily cause pollution of drinking water sources, increasing the risk of diseases such as diarrhea and dysentery; Floods inundate septic tanks, sewers, etc., causing animal carcasses to decay, breeding vectors such as mosquitoes and flies, and increasing the risk of infectious diseases.

Please remember to pay attention to drinking water hygiene and dietary hygiene. In case of fever or diarrhea, seek medical attention promptly. Don't use your hands, especially dirty hands rubbing your eyes. Contact patients and actively wear masks. Keep the skin clean and dry, etc.
