Get ready to grab your umbrellas, folks! 🌂 Typhoon Yinxing is making its way towards Hainan Province, and it's bringing some serious rain with it.
According to China's Ministry of Water Resources, central and southeastern parts of the Chinese mainland's Hainan Province are expected to experience moderate to heavy rainfall from November 11 to 12.
But that's not all! Minor rises in water levels are anticipated in the Wanquan River, Changhua River, and other coastal rivers. 🌊 So if you're near these areas, keep an eye on the water levels.
The Ministry of Water Resources is on top of the situation, closely monitoring Yinxing's path. They're holding daily discussions and assessments, and keeping the Hainan Provincial Water Resources Department in the loop with the latest rainfall forecasts.
They're also kicking things into high gear by repairing damaged water infrastructure, enhancing mountain flood prevention measures, and improving evacuation plans for at-risk areas. Plus, they're optimizing reservoir operations to balance flood control and water storage. Talk about multitasking! 💪
A team has been deployed to Hainan to support flood control operations. Hainan's water resources department is hard at work identifying and addressing risks in water infrastructure and prepping reservoirs for potential flooding.
As of 10 a.m. on November 10, Typhoon Yinxing was centered about 245 kilometers southeast of Sansha City, Hainan. It's expected to move southwest at 5-10 kilometers per hour. So brace yourselves for a wet and wild weekend! 🌧️
Stay safe out there, and remember to stay updated with the latest news. If you're in the affected areas, make sure to take all necessary precautions. And hey, maybe it's time to binge-watch that series you've been meaning to catch up on! 📺
