XINXIANG, China First the sky darkened. Then came the rain for three straight days. Inside her restaurant, Wang Ana barricaded the doors in an effort to stop water from seeping in.

Starting last Tuesday, storms dropped the equivalent of one year s worth of water on the city in a 72 hour period before moving northward, flooding large swathes of Henan province in China. Authorities say the rains have displaced more than a million people and at least 63 people dead in what should have been – in theory – once-in-a-thousand-year floods.
