China Braces for Heavy Rainstorms: Yellow Alert Issued 🌧️

China’s National Meteorological Center has renewed a yellow alert for rainstorms across multiple regions, warning of intense downpours, thunderstorms, and strong winds. 🌩️ Southern provinces like Guangdong, Hunan, and the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region are set to face up to 80 millimeters of rainfall per hour starting Friday afternoon.

Authorities are urging residents in affected areas to stay alert 🚨 and follow safety guidelines, including avoiding outdoor work and relocating from high-risk zones. Traffic controls may be implemented to prevent accidents during peak rainfall.

What’s a Yellow Alert? 🌈

China’s weather warning system uses a four-tier color code: red (most severe), orange, yellow, and blue. While yellow isn’t the highest level, it signals significant disruptions—think flooded streets or delayed commutes. 🚗💨

Local governments are \"prioritizing public safety\" by preparing emergency responses, securing power supplies, and monitoring vulnerable areas. Stay dry out there! ☔
