China Meteorological Bureau launched a three-level emergency response. Why is the flood season so serious this year?

Because of the recent heavy rains in Jiangnan and other places, it is expected that there will be frequent heavy rains from the eastern part of the southwest to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River on June 8, and there will be heavy rains to heavy rains in parts of Chongqing, Guizhou, Jianghan, Jianghuai and northern Jiangnan, and there will be heavy rains in the local area. Therefore, the China Meteorological Bureau launched a three-level emergency response; At the same time, there are many thunderstorms in North China and other places.

In addition, candidates who take the college entrance examination near the above areas should plan their travel routes in time, leaving enough time for the examination room, so as not to delay the examination and travel safely. In terms of temperature, there was high temperature in both north and south during the college entrance examination. Among them, Fuzhou and Haikou will experience continuous high temperature, and the heat will be almost uninterrupted throughout the day. Local college entrance examination candidates should pay attention to heatstroke prevention and cooling; In addition, Xi 'an, Zhengzhou and Jinan will have one or two days of high temperature today and tomorrow, and the high temperature will subside from the 8th. Affected by continuous heavy rainfall, the inflow of water from the two lakes system and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River increased significantly, and the water levels of stations in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River continued to rise. The water level of the 858-kilometer levee in Dongting Lake area exceeded the warning.

The hydrological department predicts that the Jianli-Jiangyin section of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will completely exceed the warning water level in the next few days, with the maximum exceeding range of 0.5 meters to 1.0 meters. On 5th 10, the Hydrological Bureau of the Yangtze River Water Resources Commission continued to issue a yellow flood warning to draw the attention of relevant units and the public along the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and in Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake areas.

The reporter learned from the Hunan Flood and Drought Disaster Prevention Center that as of 5th 18, the water levels of 29 dikes and 858km dikes in Dongting Lake area have exceeded the warning water level, and the water level is still rising, so the flood control situation is grim. The Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters of Hunan Province has decided to upgrade the emergency response of flood control in the whole province from level 4 to level 3 on 5th 12. The area around Dongting Lake is organizing personnel to patrol the embankment to check risks and prepare emergency materials, requiring all levels and departments to enter the actual combat state and prepare for flood control.

The heavy rainfall in recent days has led to a general rise in the water level of rivers in Jiangxi Province. There are numbered floods in the Le 'an River and the Yangtze River in Raohe River Basin, and super-alert floods in 7 stations including Hushan Station of Le 'an River Control Station and Dufengkeng Station of Yangtze River Control Station. The flood control situation is severe and complicated.

In this regard, all localities are required to immediately organize forces to conduct a comprehensive investigation of hidden dangers and weak links in flood control to prevent the adverse effects of geological disasters caused by local heavy rainfall, floods in small and medium-sized rivers and waterlogging in urban and rural areas, and at the same time strengthen dike inspections to prevent the potential risks that may be brought by long-term high water level immersion of dikes along the Yangtze River and lakeside areas.
