Affected by heavy rainfall, the water levels of some rivers and lakes in the Yangtze River Basin have risen, alarms have occurred in many rivers, and heavy rains, floods and geological disasters have occurred in many places.
The continuous rainy and low sunshine weather has adversely affected the tiller control of the early rice sunning fields in the northern part of the Yangtze River, and some rice fields have been flooded.
According to forecasts, in the coming week, heavy rainfall will continue in Jiangnan, Southern China and Guizhou. The main rainfall periods will be May 28 to 31 and June 1 to 3.
