The Huaihe River Commission of the Ministry of Water Resources on Monday raised the emergency response for flood control to Level I, the highest of the four-tier emergency response system, due to the grim flood situation.
The water level at the Wangjiaba hydrological station on the main course of the Huaihe River had risen to 29.66 meters by 6:36am Monday , exceeding the guaranteed level of 29.3 meters, according to the commission located in the city of Bengbu, east Chinas Anhui Province.
The guaranteed water level refers to the upper limit of the water level that ensures the safety of the embankments and affiliated projects.

CYA, wouldn’t wanna BYA.
Couldnt happen to a nicer communist regime.
Videos from the area are grim - little or no warning to the people. Their government really sucks, hope they start to figure that out soon. The vaunted PLA is invisible, while state media outlets say it looks like a great water fairy. Seriously, you cant make that crap up.
Ever notice the names of government offices in these commie or Muslim countries? They are called “ministries” Who they minister to? How about a “ministry of Christian religion?” You will never see that.
Heh. I saw that pic over at zerohedge. That guy must not be well liked.
My finger? Where?!?
