The water level in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River is expected to rise again. Why is this happening?

According to the recent weather forecast, there will be several days of heavy rain and rainstorm in central China, especially in the Yangtze River basin from west to east. The rainstorm is located in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, near Dongting Lake. If the rainstorm continues, the water level may continue to rise, and it is expected that the water level in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River will rise again and will not slow down. These forecasts also provide guidance for our flood control and disaster relief work.

There is heavy rain in the Three Gorges area of the Yangtze River in China every year, and floods and landslides may occur in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Huaihe River and other areas along the Yangtze River. If we don't make preparations for flood control and disaster relief in advance, it will be the broad masses of the people who suffer. This year, comrades in China who are fighting floods and providing disaster relief are also on the front line. For the broad masses of the people, they worked day and night to prepare for flood fighting and disaster relief, prepared sandbags and moved to the areas along the Yangtze River one by one. They work so hard, which shows that they work hard only to serve the people.

The news that the water level in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River is expected to rise again is also to remind everyone to pay attention to safety and assist the government in flood control. The water level has risen again, largely because of the continuous rainstorm for many days. However, the water level of the Three Gorges Dam has overflowed and there is no way to store excess rainwater. Then the seawater level is higher than the river, which leads to the resurgence of seawater. The water in the main stream of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River cannot be discharged, and the continuous rise of water level has not slowed down, so it is easy to rise again, making flood control and disaster relief work more difficult.

Flood control and disaster relief work should be predicted and prepared early to avoid heavy losses. Our country has enough experience in flood fighting and disaster relief. Every flood relief worker has been through many battles, and many mass volunteers have joined the ranks of protecting our beautiful home. For natural disasters, we all need to do our part. Apart from admiring the soldiers who fought against floods and disasters, we also want to thank them for fighting for our lives and standing in front of them to fight against flood disasters year after year.
