I learned from the Ministry of Water Resources that typhoon “Shader” directly affected the Zhejiang and Fujian regions when it landed, and will travel westward to affect the Yangtze River and Pearl River basins in the future. Due to the rainfall brought about by the typhoon, major rivers such as the Oujiang River and Feiyun River in Zhejiang, the Minjiang River, Jiaoxi River, and the Aojiang River in Fujian, the Ganjiang River, the Xinjiang River, and the Zishui River in Hunan will experience significant water rise. Miao Shichao, a third-level researcher at the Flood Control Division II of the Flood and Drought Disaster Prevention Department of the Ministry of Water Resources: In response to the typhoon's torrential rain and storm surge, the coastal river water level is at peak risk. Before the typhoon lands, on the premise of ensuring downstream flood control safety, the early flood-blocking reservoir was dispatched to increase drainage, reserve flood control storage capacity, and use the watershed as a unit to stop and store floods after the typhoon landed in an effort to reduce downstream flood control pressure.
