- Story Text: Chinese state broadcaster CCTV aired footage on Monday (July 4) of several provinces in southern China being lashed by heavy rainfall, as Typhoon Chaba made landfall over the weekend.
The footage showed an excavator working among floodwater in Fuchuan, Guangxi province on Sunday (July 3).
In Zhanjiang, Guangdong province, rescuers were seen transporting residents over inundated roads.
Heavy rain is expected to hit central and southern China over the next few days as the expansive rain belts of a weakening typhoon sweep inland from the country's southern coastline.
