South China is gearing up for another round of strong rainfall from May 3 to 5, according to China's National Meteorological Center.
The downpours will hit eastern Guizhou, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangdong, western Fujian provinces, and the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, with some areas expecting torrential rain.
These regions, including Guangdong, Guangxi, and Fujian, have already experienced above-average rainfall this year. Residents should stay alert for potential secondary disasters like landslides and debris flows due to the cumulative precipitation.
With the May Day holiday coinciding with this weather event, the public is advised to plan their return journeys carefully and be prepared for possible disruptions caused by heavy rain and strong convective weather.
Adding to the unusual weather, the temperature pattern will continue with warmer weather in the north and cooler conditions in the south over the next three days.
Northeast China will experience ongoing warming, with cities like Harbin and Changchun expected to reach highs of 27 to 28 degrees Celsius. The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in northwest China will also see significant temperature rises, with some areas hitting up to 30 degrees Celsius.
