Intense rainfall is scattered in many areas in the north and south, with some overlapping affected areas. The National Flood Control Office will hold consultations and deploy flood prevention and disaster relief work.

On the morning of July 22, the Office of the National Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters and the Ministry of Emergency Management organized a joint meeting with the China Meteorological Administration, Ministry of Water Resources, Ministry of Natural Resources, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, Ministry of Transport and other departments to analyze the development trend of rainfall and flood situation, deploy key areas for preventing and responding to heavy rainfall and flood relief work. The meeting pointed out that the current nationwide rainfall is characterized by wide coverage and strong intensity in some areas, with scattered distribution in many places. Some areas overlap with previous precipitation, and some rivers, lakes and reservoirs have high water levels and saturated soil moisture, leading to a high risk of floods, flash floods, and geological disasters in small and medium-sized rivers. In addition, Typhoon No.12 is expected to generate soon, and will later affect the southern region of China, making the flood and typhoon prevention situation complex and severe.
