In central China's Hunan Province, more than 9,000 people have been relocated since a rainstorm started on Wednesday

Torrential rain also hit the southern province of Guangdong, affecting 288,700 people in five cities and forcing 11,400 to evacuate.

Even the drought-hit Yunnan Province in the southwest suffered downpour over the past 24 hours. The provincial weather bureau said heavy rain would continue until Saturday.
