Record July 20, 2021 Zhengzhou one thousand years of heavy rainfall

July 19th afternoon rain has been raining, and in the evening turned into a downpour, fell all night. The original feeling is that rainy days are good for sleeping, but this time there is a sense of depression.

On the morning of July 20, the rain still didn't stop and the sky was dark. In the morning, I received a text message from the kindergarten teacher that the kindergarten was closed because of the heavy rain. I don't plan to go out either.

In the afternoon, I brushed a lot of videos in my circle of friends, water, silt, and even waterfalls, and those who were outside encountered a thrilling scene after scene, and some of them were really a moment of life and death.

After 4 p.m. the water in the neighborhood was getting more and more, e-bikes were flooded, and slowly cars were flooded.

In the evening news, the Zhengzhou subway was flooded and people were trapped. Zhengzhou East Railway Station appeared to be a waterfall. Metro buses and high-speed trains were out of service, hospitals were in emergency, and the whole city was paralyzed.

On this day, Zhengzhou's one-hour rainfall reached a maximum of 201.9 millimeters, a once-in-a-millennium downpour.

Looking at the news sources, several reservoirs in Zhengzhou are in emergency, and the PLA is stationed in Zhengzhou to fight against flooding.

July 21 night heavy rain has been down, sleepless, never, did not encounter such a situation, tomorrow and the accident in fact which will come first?

July 22 morning six o'clock, received a text message sent by the telecommunications, the content of the Guojiazui Reservoir there is a major safety hazard, Zhengzhou Flood Control Command decided to part of the regional scope of the immediate transfer of personnel. Although we did not transfer within the scope, or very upset. Later, the news is that the danger is lifted, fortunately.

7:30 a.m. went downstairs to get water, found that the water dispenser is not energized. I went to a nearby mini-market to buy water, because I was late, the mineral water had been snapped up. I bought a carton of milk and some snacks.

After coming out at 10:00 a.m., I opened the car door and saw a lot of water under the mat, and a lot of water in the trunk where I put the spare tire. Next to a Mercedes-Benz car is estimated to be too much rain drifted over, the rear of the car has been close together. Many car owners scooped the water out from inside the car and padded it onto the roof. Some people passing by were glad they hadn't bought a car.

The streets were full of cars sprawled across the street, leaf litter was everywhere, and the sidewalks were a mess with many collapsed areas. Most of the stores on the 1st floor of the street showed signs of flooding, and one of the biggest supermarkets in the neighborhood was flooded yesterday. Some people said that the water on the side of the road was up to their shoulders yesterday, so you can imagine that yesterday's rain was really too much.

There is a supermarket not far away that sells mineral water, so I bought a few bottles. I saw some people still carrying Honey Snow Ice City drinks, food and beverage stores are usually open.

After lunch, I went to the footbridge on Jingguang Road, and saw that the tunnel had been filled with water, and a lot of cars were parked on the side of the road, so I don't know what else is inside that tunnel.

This scene reminds me of the flood in 98, and I realize what is the post-disaster reconstruction. I hope everything will be fine as soon as possible.
