Local residents are advised to take precautions for geological disasters triggered by heavy rainfall, especially in areas with hidden dangers. China has a four-tier color-coded weather warning system with red representing the most severe, followed by orange, yellow and blue. Massive rains have been battering most parts of Asia, particularly India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and the Philippines. In August, China's southern province experienced historic-heavy rains, leading its biggest subway to submerge in water for weeks.
