Beijing's Miyun district recorded over 315mm of rainfall from July 26-27, causing severe flooding and landslides. Multiple villages lost road access, power and communications. At Shicheng Town Central Primary School, now serving as an emergency shelter, 138 evacuees have been housed. Authorities have delivered food, water and established 24-hour medical services at the site. The extreme weather comes as northern China experiences its annual summer flood season, with meteorologists warning of more heavy rainfall in coming days. Photos: Li Hao/GT
