Floods in other parts of China
Various parts of China have experienced record high temperatures and deadly flooding in the recent weeks. Experts expressed belief that the extreme weather could be linked to climate change.
The latest devastation came as major floods on the other side of the country in northeastern China have also been experienced by residents.
Various areas in China were reportedly battered by heavy rains from regional typhoons that began late last month.
Based on official records, the floods had killed at least 29 individuals in the Hebei province as well as 33 others in China's capital, Beijing.
Meanwhile, at least 14 people were also killed in the city of Shulan in Jilin province because the rain had moved towards the northward direction.
The weather also flooded farmlands in the country's grain-producing area.
Authorities had said the northern portion of Heilongjiang, the rivers that irrigate its fertile farmlands overflowed due to the rains. This then resulted in the submerging of rice fields, the destruction of vegetable greenhouses and the damage of factories.
Weather experts said the heavy rains that was brought by Typhoon Doksuri's remnants was one of the strongest storms to hit northern China in years.
Beijing, for its part, had recorded 744.8 millimeters of rain, the largest quantity of precipitation recorded during the downpour.
Local residents earlier described the extreme rainfall that they have encountered as unlike anything that they had ever seen.
To recall, Chinese President Xi Jinping had ordered for an "all-out" search and rescue efforts to minimize casualties amid the bad weather.
The Chinese central government and local governments have ensured that significant resources would be deployed for disaster relief measures.
The Chinese government also provided 100 million yuan or approximately $13.9 million to support emergency recovery and reconstruction.
It also gave 30 million yuan in emergency road repair subsidies to Beijing and Hebei Province to address the aftermath of the typhoon-caused rainstorms.
The Emergency Management Department and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs have also been in charge of controlling flood storage areas and agricultural areas in order to prevent floods and epidemics.
