Roman_War_Criminal :" The Chinese province of Sichuan, located on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, has activated the highest level of flood control
response for the first time on record on Tuesday, August 18, 2020, as rain-induced floods continue ravaging parts of the province.
Meanwhile, the Three Gorges Dam in Hubei is facing the most severe floods since it was built in 2003 and the Tropical Storm "Higos" made landfall in Guangdong.

The monsoons have ravaged the Yangtze river and its tributaries before the rice crop was harvested.
Also, the area downstream from the Three Gorges Dam houses the bulk of Chinese manufacturing.
The situation doesn't bode well for the Chinese people, and the North Koreans are already harvesting people's pets for a food source.

This must be the highly vaunted Double Secret flood control response.

Was in Beijing in 2015 during a normal monsoon season. It flooded quickly and lots of water running down the streets. The girls took a taxi back to the hotel, but the guys and my daughter hailed a tuktuk. They made it back after 45 minutes but were really scared,
