BEIJING, Sept. 19 (Xinhua) — China's National Flood and Drought Control Headquarters on Thursday issued a Level 4 flood and typhoon emergency response in Guangdong Province in southern China as Typhoon Mitag approaches.
Typhoon Mitag, the 17th hurricane of the year, is expected to make landfall between Huilai and Taishan between Friday afternoon and evening, bringing strong winds and heavy rainfall to most parts of Guangdong Province, forecasters said.
Heavy rain is also expected to hit east China's Fujian Province from Friday to Sunday, the National Meteorological Center (NMC) said.
During the same period, heavy rain or thunderstorms are forecast in Jiangxi, Hunan, Hainan and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
The NMC called on local authorities to take emergency measures to prepare for the typhoon, as well as potential mountain torrents and geological disasters that could be caused by heavy rainfall.
It is worth remembering that China has a four-tier emergency response system, with the first tier being the most serious.
