China — the south-west and north-west run, carried and not refreshed

ACTIVE · September 17, 2026 · NO. 0917

THE WATER

The south-west and north-west rainstorm run is carried from previous editions as reported and aging, because the national warning pages were gated this run. Yesterday's hourly-rate figure is not re-printed as today's. The mechanism has not changed — hourly totals on steep ground, where the mudslide risk outlasts the rain alert — but today's reading is a day old and labelled so.
