At noon on the 18th, the reporter saw water leaking from several manhole covers on the coastal roads near Haiyue Square Beach in Tianya District, Sanya, and some low-lying areas on the road surface with water about 10 cm. Vehicles were passing normally.
A large amount of rainwater flows into a river and washes the beach, forming its own "outlet".
During the heavy rain, garden sanitation workers in orange raincoats collected and handled the broken branches and fallen leaves on the street. The staff said, “If they are not handled in time, the drainage pipes will definitely be blocked.”
A lot of standing water hit the beach.
