Weather forecasters said that although the heavy rain in Henan will subside on Monday, people and authorities need to take flood precautions because the new rain has overlapped some of the same areas hit last month.
Rainstorms with levels of precipitation not seen in decades that hit Henan on July 20 caused more than 300 deaths.
Chen Tao, chief forecaster of the National Meteorological Center, said, "This bout of rain is weaker than the one in July and is moving faster from west to east."
