Water levels in the Yangtze River will remain dangerously high for even longer. At Chenglingji, a key monitoring station, the water is expected to stay above warning level for a week.
The Hunan government has mobilized 302,700 people to conduct flood control work.
Among them are employees from about 300 noodle restaurants in Changsha. The team began participating in flood control work on Saturday, and started cooking noodles for those fighting floods on Monday.
