Shanghai, Jiangsu, Anhui, and Jiangxi, as Typhoon Co-May, the eighth typhoon of the year, approaches. The forecast predicts intense rainfall in these areas, including Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu, and Jiangxi from Monday through Saturday, leading to significant water level increases in rivers and waterways around Taihu Lake, with smaller rivers potentially surpassing flood alert thresholds.
Furthermore, the ministry announced a Level-IV response in Xinjiang and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps in light of flooding resulting from snowmelt due to ongoing high temperatures. Flooding along the Tarim River and its tributaries is anticipated to persist until mid-August. Authorities have urged local governments to closely monitor the changing weather, provide early warnings, and enhance flood control measures to protect lives and property. China's emergency response structure is organized into four levels, with Level I indicating the most critical situations.
