A City Rebounds: Wuzhou’s Flood Crisis Eases as Rivers Recede
Residents of Wuzhou City in the Chinese mainland’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region can finally breathe a sigh of relief 🌧️—the Xijiang River’s water level fell below the warning mark early Monday, signaling the end of this round of flooding. After days of heightened alerts, the Wuzhou Hydrological Station recorded levels at 18.40 meters (down from 18.5 meters), allowing maritime authorities to lift navigation restrictions and resume river traffic.
The Wuzhou Maritime Safety Administration swiftly adjusted safety protocols, reopening the Guijiang and Xijiang rivers to vessels by 10 a.m. Monday. 🛳️ With water levels steadily declining, the city’s critical shipping routes are now back in action, supporting local businesses and transport networks.
This isn’t just good news for logistics—students, travelers, and locals alike are celebrating the return to normalcy. 🌉 From delayed deliveries to disrupted commutes, Wuzhou’s resilience shines through as the region shifts from flood response to recovery mode.
