The Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region’s Yulin Meteorological Bureau issued an orange-level暴雨 warning on June 25, 2026, as heavy rainfall continued to impact southern China, according to official records.

The Yulin Meteorological Bureau reported that rainfall in the region reached 50 millimeters per hour in some areas by midday on June 25, with forecasts predicting continued intensification through the evening. “Residents in low-lying areas are advised to evacuate immediately,” the bureau stated in a public advisory. This follows a week of consecutive downpours that have already caused localized flooding in Guangxi’s urban centers, according to China Daily.

Central Meteorological Bureau data shows that Guangxi and Guizhou provinces remain under the most intense rainfall pressure, with some areas experiencing 100-150 millimeters of rain over the past 48 hours. The bureau also issued warnings for hail and thunderstorms in southern Hunan and eastern Guangdong, citing “unstable atmospheric conditions” as the primary cause.

In addition to the rain, the North China Plain is facing a surge in high temperatures, with the Central Meteorological Bureau reporting daytime highs exceeding 35°C in Hebei and Shandong provinces. “This marked contrast between southern precipitation and northern heat is typical during the summer monsoon transition period,” said a bureau spokesperson.

Local authorities in Guangxi have deployed emergency response teams to monitor flood risks, while transportation networks in Yulin and Wuzhou have implemented traffic restrictions in flood-prone zones. The Guangxi Emergency Management Department confirmed that no major casualties have been reported as of June 25 evening, though several rural roads remain closed due to landslides.

The ongoing weather pattern aligns with broader climatic trends observed in southern China this season. A June 24 report by the China Meteorological Administration noted that the region has experienced 20% above-average rainfall since May 2026, contributing to heightened flood risks. “This is part of an extended wet phase linked to the Pacific Ocean’s warmer-than-usual sea surface temperatures,” the report stated.
