That dam that was badly damaged may be a time bomb.
If they can no longer control its flow and there are heavy rains the water could well be rising behind a very damaged structure that can’t take it.
Why does it seem that it always rains after these disasters?
Good point, DB. With all the people still remaining trapped, and all the recovery efforts they still need to complete, plus the rain and bad weather, and threat of more rock and mudslides, it sounds as if the onsite responders have their hands full.
I pray that China will either be able to do it all themselves very quickly, or quickly develop whatever trust they feel they need to allow other countries to help in all recovery effots. Time is critical right now for any survivors still awaiting rescue.
