It rained upstream, but it wasn't the heavy rain we were worried about.
The water coming downstream is only slightly higher than usual, and the Jingjiang water level has been continuously dropping for seven consecutive days.
The clouds on both sides of Jingjiang have long cleared, with temperatures consistently over 35 degrees Celsius for seven days straight. Yesterday was the hottest, reaching 37.7 degrees. It's said that Hanwu City hasn't seen rain for a week either.
Clearly, the rainy season has ended, and the "summer drought" peculiar to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is starting to show its power.
Five minutes ago, the City Flood Control Command reported that the water level across the line had dropped below the warning level.
Han Yu felt relieved, put down the duty phone record, and laughed, "Looks like the flood is impatient. Although the flood peak was fierce, it lacks stamina."
