On Tuesday, a powerful daytime hailstorm struck China’s Guizhou province, with hailstones reaching 2–5 cm in diameter and rainfall intensity exceeding 40 mm per hour, while winds gusted up to 22 m/s. The hardest-hit areas were Zheng'an County and the city of Liupanshui, where more than 1,200 homes were damaged, 860 vehicles were affected, and about 3,500 residents temporarily lost power. Emergency services received over 2,000 calls within three hours, police recorded 47 traffic accidents, and 18 people sustained minor injuries, though no fatalities were reported. Agricultural losses impacted more than 4,700 hectares of crops, with some farms reporting up to 60% destruction, and total economic damage is preliminarily estimated at 78 million yuan. Authorities deployed over 600 responders and 120 units of equipment, issued a yellow weather alert, and continue recovery efforts as cleanup operations and infrastructure repairs move forward across the region.
