Southern China is bracing for its most severe storms this year, as record rainfall triggers deadly floods and landslides across multiple provinces.
China's National Meteorological Centre (NMC) issued alerts for heavy rain and flooding in the southern regions on Wednesday, warning of extreme weather that could cause mountain floods, geological disasters, and localised flooding. The provinces of Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangxi, Guangdong, and Guizhou are among the most affected, with rainfall in some areas expected to exceed 150 millimetres. In response, several train services in cities like Shenzhen and across coastal Fujian have been suspended.
The worsening conditions, attributed to climate change, have already resulted in at least 13 deaths and left others missing. Landslides in Guizhou prompted military-led rescue operations as dozens were reported trapped. With more extreme weather forecasted, authorities stress the urgency of preparedness amid increasingly unpredictable climate events.
