Chapter 23: Heavy Rain

"Minister Zhang, how are the preparations for the propaganda work?" Hong Xianguo turned to Zhang Changhe, the head of the Propaganda Department.

"All the equipment and personnel are already in place." Zhang Changhe said: "I'm waiting to welcome Secretary Zhao's arrival." ”

Hong Xianguo nodded and didn't ask more. Zhang Changhe has served two terms as propaganda minister, and he has very rich experience in propaganda work, so he can rest assured that the task of propaganda work is to be carried out.

"Lao He, what about the reception work?" Hong Xianguo smiled and looked at He Luming, the head of the county party committee, Lao He was not only responsible for the contact and coordination between several preparations, but also specifically responsible for the reception work.

"There was no problem with the reception work either. The accommodation of Secretary Zhao of the Provincial Party Committee was arranged in the No. 1 Building of Xiaozhao of the County Party Committee. The food has also been carefully prepared, which not only takes care of the taste of Secretary Zhao's hometown, but also reflects the local characteristics of our Nannan. In addition, we also specially invited a senior dietitian from the Provincial People's Hospital to be responsible for the ...... of the recipes in the past two days."

Before He Luming's words were finished, a dazzling lightning bolt suddenly flashed from the huge floor-to-ceiling window, followed by a huge thunderclap, as if it exploded above people's heads, shaking the chandeliers in the conference room flickering on and off, and the two cabinet air conditioners actually stopped working.

"What's going on? Still thundering at this time? Before Hong Xianguo's thoughts were finished, he heard a loud bang, and the two windows blew open, and a strong wind carrying sand and dust blew in from outside, blowing the documents on the conference table all over the sky. Looking out the window again, I saw one lightning bolt after another flashing wildly in the night sky, and the sound of thunderclaps was incessant, almost bursting people's eardrums.

He Chengming hurriedly rushed to the window, about to close the window, but before he walked to the window, the rain had already hit in, and the ground at the root of the window was already wet, and then looked outside, where the lights shone was already white, and the overwhelming rain poured down from the sky......

**********************************************************************

"This god is really strange, how can there be a lot of rain at this time?" In the ward on the second floor of the People's Hospital, Uncle Quan looked at the pouring rain outside and said.

"You don't care if the rain is big and the rain is small, as long as it's cool." Aunt Quan sat on the edge of the hospital bed and fanned Lin Yuanfang, and said, "You haven't looked at this day, and you haven't killed our family far away." ”

"Mom, I'll do it myself." Lin Yuanfang was about to grab the fan. Isn't it just an appendicitis surgery? The stitches will be removed the day after tomorrow, and he is really embarrassed to let the second elder serve him like this.

"Mom fanned you and didn't hit it?" Aunt Quan patted Lin Yuanfang's hand and said angrily: "Don't be reckless, wait until you are well." ”

Uncle Quan lay on the windowsill and looked at the rain outside, shook his head and said, "It's weird, it's really weird!" I haven't seen this much rain in decades. In the distance, the weather forecast on the radio in the afternoon did not say that there was rain! Such heavy rain during the Mid-Autumn Festival is not a good sign. ”

"Dad, there's nothing strange about it, this is called local strong convective weather, the process of formation is very fast, it happened very suddenly, the weather station did not forecast it, it is normal." Lin Yuanfang turned over and got out of bed, slowly walked to Uncle Quan's side, and looked out the window. Aunt Quan followed behind him and fanned him one by one. At this time, the rain has just started, and it is cool outside, but the house is even hotter.

Having said that, Lin Yuanfang was still taken aback when he watched the waterfall-like rain falling from the sky, no wonder his father said that he had never seen such a big rain for decades, and Lin Yuanfang's memory had never seen such a fierce rainfall. Although I don't know exactly how much rain will fall yet, looking at the rain, it is definitely enough for a heavy rainstorm.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuanfang shook his head, if the rain goes down for an hour or two according to the current momentum, the county seat of Binan will definitely suffer, and when he gets up tomorrow morning, the county will be full of stagnant water. As the backbone of the planning technology department, Lin Yuanfang is very clear about the drainage capacity of the drainage network in Binan County. Although it is said that two years ago, when Hong Xianguo, secretary of the county party committee, was focusing on the construction of small towns, he invested funds to carry out technical transformation of the drainage pipe network in the county, but Lin Yuanfang knew very well that the kind of transformation was okay to cope with the rainfall that occurred once in three or two years, and in the face of such a heavy rainstorm that occurs once in several decades, the drainage capacity of the drainage network is too weak.

********************************************************************

In the conference room of the county party committee, at the beginning, several leaders of Hong Xianguo and Liu Hongwei were still talking and laughing. Liu Hongwei said that the rain looks quite heavy, but it doesn't matter. The faster you come and go, the shorter you go, the shorter you go. It will not affect our work of receiving Secretary Zhao.

Deng Guohua, deputy secretary of the party and the masses, also made fun: whether it rains, not only the air is fresh, but it is also equivalent to cleaning the buildings for Pinan County for free, and the effect of Secretary Zhao's inspection will definitely be better.

He Luming hid to the side and called the Binan County Meteorological Bureau and asked them what was going on with the heavy rain? How did not make a forecast.

The director of the Meteorological Bureau hurriedly explained that this was a local severe convective weather, and the meteorological process happened very suddenly, and there was no time to make a forecast. He also said that not only the Binan County Meteorological Bureau, but also the Municipal Meteorological Bureau, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau, the National Meteorological Bureau, and even the foreign Meteorological Bureau, do not have a good forecast method for this kind of local strong convective weather.

He Luming impatiently interrupted the director of the Meteorological Bureau to explain at length, he said, I am not the master to ask the guilt now, you don't need to explain this to me, I am now asking you about the situation, how big the scope of this rainstorm is, and how long it will rain.

The director of the meteorological bureau hurriedly said, according to the feedback from the weather station below, as well as the understanding of the situation with the surrounding counties and cities, the scope of this rainstorm is not large, mainly concentrated in Chengguan Town, Nanzhuang Town and Gucheng Township, among which Chengguan Town has the largest rain. As for how long this rain will last, it's really hard to say. However, under normal circumstances, this kind of locally strong convective weather will not last too long......

He Luming hung up the phone, came behind Hong Xianguo, and reported the situation to Hong Xianguo and Liu Hongwei. Liu Hongwei said with a smile, how can this Lao Li of the Meteorological Bureau say something similar to me? I don't need him to tell me, and I know this rain won't last long.

There was a burst of laughter in the conference room, and everyone said that County Magistrate Liu was really knowledgeable, and the Meteorological Bureau would dare to fool us in the future.

When they said these words, everyone didn't realize that the rain outside would develop into a heavy rainstorm that was rare in a hundred years in Binan County.
