Remnants of Gaemi’s vast cloud-banks could still dump rain on already waterlogged cities, forecasters warned.
Cyclonic winds from Gaemi had mostly dissipated but many parts of China remained under alert for flooding risks caused by earlier rains.
Cyclonic winds from Gaemi, downgraded from a typhoon, had mostly dissipated by July 28, but many parts of China remained under alert for flooding risks caused by earlier rains. Two officials, including the deputy mayor of Linjiang city in Jilin province, went missing during flood rescue efforts, CCTV said, citing city authorities. More than 27,000 people in northeast China were evacuated and hundreds of factories suspended operations.
Jilin province, bordering North Korea, issued upgraded warnings for heavy rains and flash floods on the morning of July 28. Linjiang authorities shut schools, factories and businesses on July 28, warning that “major flood disasters may occur”.
