Violent Mei is here! 10 Provinces and Regions Initiate Level 4 Emergency Response for Flood and Drought Disaster Prevention in Guizhou | Mountain Floods | Violent Plum Blossoms
Recently, heavy rainfall occurred in many places in the south, with local heavy rainstorm. According to CCTV News, the Ministry of Water Resources launched a four level emergency response for flood and drought disaster prevention in 10 provinces and regions, including Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui, on the 19th, and sent a working group to the front line to guide the defense work. At the same time, it asked water conservancy departments at all levels to closely monitor the development and changes of rain, water and flood conditions, strengthen forecasting and early warning, consultation and analysis, and water project scheduling, so as to ensure the safety of people's lives.
The Central Meteorological Observatory predicts that in the next 10 days, the strongest rain belt will be maintained in the area south of the Yangtze River, with a long duration of heavy rainfall and a large cumulative amount of rainfall, making it a stage of "violent plum blossom".
Heavy rainfall continues to dominate areas such as Jiangnan and South China
Two rounds of obvious rainfall are coming
From the cumulative rainfall of the process, there were heavy rains in Jiangnan, the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, western South China and other places from 19th to 25th, and heavy rainstorm and local extremely heavy rainstorm in some areas of southern Guizhou, Hunan, southeastern Hubei, central and northern Jiangxi, southern Anhui, central and western Zhejiang, northern Guangxi and other places. The cumulative rainfall was 80-300 mm, and the local rainfall could exceed 500 mm.
According to the process, there are mainly two rounds of obvious rainfall: one round is from the 19th to the 21st, and the other round is from the 22nd to the 25th.
From 19th to 21st, the heavy rainfall concentrated in southern Guizhou, northern Guangxi and the middle and northern Jiangnan, of which the heavy rain on the 21st was the most extensive.
From the 22nd to the 25th, heavy rainfall was concentrated in many areas from Guangxi to Jiangnan, with the strongest rainfall from the 22nd to the 23rd.
The Central Meteorological Observatory continued to issue a blue rainstorm warning at 6:00 on the 20th: It is expected that from 8:00 on the 20th to 8:00 on the 21st, there will be heavy to rainstorm in some areas of northeastern Yunnan, western and southern Guizhou, northwestern Guangxi, central Hunan, northern Jiangxi, central and western Zhejiang, northwestern Fujian, eastern Jilin, southeastern Sichuan, southeastern Xizang, etc., including heavy rainstorm in northwestern Guangxi, northeastern Jiangxi, western Zhejiang, etc. The above-mentioned areas are accompanied by short-term heavy rainfall, and locally there are strong convective weather such as thunderstorms and strong winds.
Publish disaster meteorological warnings in multiple locations
The Ministry of Water Resources and the China Meteorological Administration jointly issued a meteorological warning for the yellow mountain flood disaster at 18:00 on the 19th. It is expected that from 20:00 on the 19th to 20:00 on the 20th, there will be a high possibility of local mountain flood disasters in western Zhejiang, southern Anhui, northern Jiangxi, northeastern Hunan, northern Guangxi, southern Sichuan, southern Guizhou, and northern Yunnan. Other regions may also experience mountain flood disasters due to short-term heavy rainfall.
The Ministry of Natural Resources and the China Meteorological Administration jointly issued a geological disaster meteorological risk warning at 18:00 on June 19th: It is expected that from 20:00 on June 19th to 20:00 on June 20th, some areas in western Zhejiang, southern Anhui, northern Jiangxi, northeastern Hunan, northern Guangxi, western Guizhou, and southern China will have a higher meteorological risk of geological disasters. Local residents need to pay attention to preventing geological disasters caused by heavy rainfall, especially in areas near geological hazard points.
North China, Huanghuai and other regions will face high temperatures
Starting from the 21st, high temperatures in northern China, including the Yellow River and Huaihe River, will once again develop. Beijing, Hebei, Tianjin, central and western Shandong, northern and eastern Henan, western Inner Mongolia, eastern Xinjiang, and southern Xinjiang Basin will experience temperatures above 35-37 ℃, with local temperatures exceeding 39 ℃.

Which places are most susceptible to the impact of plum rain?
China has a dedicated Meiyu monitoring area, which is divided into three regions: Jianghuai District, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and Jiangnan District.
The Meiyu region extends from Yichang, Hubei to the eastern coast of China, with a southern boundary of 28 ° N and a northern boundary of 34 ° N. The main affected areas include six provinces and one city, including Shanghai, Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, and Hunan. Wuhan, Nanchang, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Hefei, Changsha and other major cities are typical cities of the Meiyu period.
When does Meiyu usually appear?
In meteorology, the start time of the plum rain is called "entering the plum". The onset of plum blossoms in most years is concentrated in the first and middle of June. Some years of plum rain are also very unusual, with a large deviation in the morning and evening. For example, in the earliest years of 1995 and 2016, the rainy season began on May 25th, while in the latest year of 2005, the rainy season did not arrive until June 26th.
What is "Violent Plum"?
"Violent plum rain" is actually a description of heavy and intense plum rain in recent years.
The amount of rainfall in the plum rain season often directly affects the distribution of drought and flood in that year, such as "violent plum". The rain keeps falling, and the plum rain area faces not only damp and mildew, but also severe flood conditions in Rivers and Lakes.
The strongest rain belt in the next 10 days will be maintained in the area south of the Yangtze River, with a long duration of heavy rainfall and a large cumulative amount of rainfall, which can be called a periodic "violent plum".
Special reminder: Friends in the southern region need to pay attention to local forecasts and warnings this week, and try to avoid heavy rainfall periods and stay away from disaster prone areas when traveling.
