The meteorological center said some of these regions will also experience heavy rainfall marked by 20 to 40 millimeters of hourly precipitation and severe convective weather, such as thunderstorms, gales and hail.

It has advised local governments and residents to take precautions accordingly. Schools and kindergartens should work to ensure the safety of children, and drivers should remain alert for road waterlogging and traffic jams.

China has a four-tier, color-coded weather warning system, with red representing the most severe warning, followed by orange, yellow and blue.
