Why is Handan not prone to floods?

Handan is not prone to floods because:

1, Handan's climate belongs to warm temperate semi-humid continental monsoon climate, with distinct four seasons and moderate rainfall, with an average annual rainfall of 500-700 mm, which makes it difficult to have extremely heavy rainfall.

2. The terrain of Handan is mainly plain, accounting for more than 75% of the city's total area. The plain is low and flat, with an altitude of 30- 100 meters. Handan plain area is conducive to the drainage and utilization of rainwater, and it is not easy to form flood storage and flood. Handan is a prefecture-level city in Hebei Province, located in the south of Hebei Province, at the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain and at the southern end of Jizhong Plain. It is an important economic, cultural and transportation center in Hebei Province.
