State-run media Xinhua reported that the water level of the Huai River reached the alert level in the early hours of Monday, meaning an embankment breach would occur along the river. To protect cities downstream from it, authorities decided to submerge the rural areas instead.
Gives good cover for the one to three million Chi-Vi deaths.
Ping.
They’re gonna have to buy US food if they want to do business. But they better be realistic about what they can get from the USA after Trump wins in Nov 3rd.
OMG!!! It’s global warming! We’re all gonna die, says Greta.
Let’s see how the typical shoddy Chinese construction holds up @ three gorges dam.
I have been following this on Utube.
punch in china flooding and search today
This is a majour disaster.
China is on high alert.
Many many souls will suffer.
God help them all.
Barrage ponds are constructed by building a dike across a natural stream. The ponds are therefore like small conservation dams with the advantage that they are easy to construct. However, it is very difficult to control this system: it is difficult to keep wild fish out and a lot of feed added to the pond will be lost because of the current. A properly built barrage pond overflows only under unusual circumstances.

I read this Twitter account- he’s got stats and info.
I check #ThreeGorgesDam frequently but it gets tricky. There’s a LOT of propaganda on all sides making it hard to get at the truth. It seems safe to say there’s millions displaced, thousands of destroyed buildings and acres of farmland. I don’t guess there’s any way to know how many have died.
If the dam fails it will be seen on satellites so they can’t hide it- it seems more heavy rain is forecast. We’ll see.
If the dam holds, it will be claimed it is because of the superior construction of China.
If the dam breaks, it will be blamed on the United States.
Ain’t Central Planning grand?
It is hard to follow the news about the flooding there because many outlets seem to be invested in the outcome - i.e., they seem to want the dam to fail as a blow to the CCP or they parrot the CCP line that there is nothing to worry about. There are still many who claim the construction/concrete was inferior due to corruption.
I suspect the truth is somewhere in the middle. I remember watching some shows on the construction of the dam years ago and there was an engineer who talked about how the capacity of the reservoir system would handle any flood. Apparently not. I suspect there were some who argued they needed extra reservoir capacity to handle extreme flooding, but the CCP did not want to flood or relocate additional towns/cities.
In the end, I would never trust the CCP because they believe and promote the idea that the state is infallible. I guess we will see.....
As dams start blowing, you’re going to have a massive catastrophe that will hit right in the supply chains...including supply chains for medications the US is dependent on.
One of the problems they have is that like places on the lower Mississppi, their major rivers contained by levees, and the river level is higher than the surrounding terrain.
(Standing on Basin street in N.O. and looking up at ships passing by on the Mississppi river.!)
Some information here.
They will be facing major food shortages when their limited farm land is underwater.
Won long Zheng no swim like carp ... blub blub blub!!!
They wanna use bio weapons on us as asymmetrical war, well we’ll see your bioweapon, and raise you our weather weapon. May the Chinese wonder for years if this is psyops or the capability of our government’s long running research into manipulating the weather.
It sure is a good thing the USA is self sufficient and doesn’t depend on China for basic necessities. /s
If the dam breaks and kills 400 million people I will play the worlds smallest violin.
The chinese have ripped us off, steal from us and now kills our people. Eff em.
I hope the dam breaks bigley.
Those same chinese people have sympathy towards are stealing our tech from colleges and industrial base, planning and building weapons to kill US troops and will stab you in the back in a nano second.
The "Trump Curse" strikes again?
