BEIJING—China was hit this week by a rare convergence of record rainfall, heatwaves, and a tornado in the southern city of Guangzhou, displacing millions of people, damaging properties, and swamping farmland, with more storms and floods on the way.
Southern China is expected to see torrential rain until Tuesday, state media reported on Friday, with no immediate reprieve to the region inundated by downpours in the past week.
