China renews second-highest alert f.
Chinese authorities on Wednesday raised the emergency response for flood control to Level II, the second-highest level in the response system, as heavy downpours continued to lash the central China province of Henan.
Extremely heavy rainfall hit Henan on Tuesday, with precipitation in Zhengzhou, the provincial capital, exceeding the highest level on local weather records, the Ministry of Emergency Management (MEM) said.
The rainstorm has caused the water level in a reservoir to rise rapidly, said the ministry, adding that all residents downstream were relocated in advance.
From 8 a.m. Saturday to 8 a.m. Wednesday, the average rainfall in Zhengzhou was 458.2 mm, with accumulated precipitation in some areas even surpassing the city s total average yearly rainfall, the China Meteorological Administration said.
