- THAILAND: Worst Mekong river flooding in 100 years irinnews 18 Aug 2008

This year, after experiencing the worst drought in 50 years, southern China is again experiencing heavy downpours and floods.
All that water has got to go somewhere. I suspect a rise in water levels on the Mekon river and am surprised that I have not seen any warnings of impending risks.
At least we have not seen the heavy continuous rains locally, as we did in 2008, but then the rainy season has just barely started.
I'm not saying it's going to happen, but it could!
Flooding in China may well be a precursor!
