Recently, many regions in southern China have been hit by heavy rainfall. This weather phenomenon caused by the combined action of the Western Pacific subtropical high and the monsoon has led to a large range of continuous precipitation. Some regions have even been hit by heavy rain, with daily rainfall exceeding 200 millimeters. This rare rainfall not only adds obstacles to residents' daily travel, but also challenges agricultural production and various infrastructures.

Affected by this, flood disasters occurred in some areas, with farmland flooded, roads damaged and houses damaged frequently. Taking Taining County, Fujian Province as an example, the severe floods forced the local residents to evacuate urgently, and the government immediately launched an emergency mechanism to devote itself to rescue and post disaster recovery. In addition, heavy rainfall also triggered secondary disasters such as landslides and debris flows. Wuzhou, Guangxi, suffered such misfortunes. Relevant departments acted quickly to implement rescue and ensure the safety of the people.

In the face of this series of natural disasters, it is urgent to effectively respond to and ensure the safety of people's lives and property. The first task is to strengthen the meteorological monitoring and early warning system to ensure that the early warning information can be quickly transmitted to every family. At the same time, we should be highly alert to potential secondary disasters, and immediately initiate emergency response once there are signs of danger.

Local governments and relevant departments need to strengthen preventive measures, strengthen the inspection of disaster prone areas, clean and dredge the drainage system, plan the transfer routes and resettlement sites of the people in advance, and try to reduce the losses caused by disasters. When a disaster occurs, quickly organize forces to rescue, ensure the safety of the people, and properly arrange the basic living needs of the affected people.
