BEIJING: China will step up efforts to issue weather warnings and ensure better coordination and implementation of emergency responses as it braces for more extreme weather in August, a flood control chief said on Wednesday.
July and August are the traditional flooding season in China.
Since this year’s flood started, average precipitation nationwide has been 31.48cm, a drop of 1.1% year-on-year.
But some areas have been hit by torrential rains over a very short period of time.
