[Reporter Tong Zhenguo/Report from Nantou] The front was affected, and Nantou County began to rain early this morning, and the rain continued until noon. The largest accumulated rainfall was 33.5 millimeters at the Wanda Power Plant in Renai Township, and 22 millimeters in Puli Township. It is the first rain in nearly a month since Japan, and the long-dry land and crops are also nourished by the rain from the sky. However, if you want to relieve the drought and alleviate the severe water situation, you need more from God.

Since the beginning of winter last year, the rainfall has been relatively low. The number of rainy days in Puli Town in November and December is very small, and the accumulated rainfall in two months is less than 40 mm. The situation has not improved in January. The Puli station only recorded 1, 2, It rained on the 10th and 3 days, with a cumulative rainfall of 12.5 millimeters. The water level of Meixi River dropped sharply and nearly dried up.

Affected by the passage of the front today, it finally rained in Puli and Ren'ai areas. It was also the first rainfall in nearly a month after January 10, and it rained heavily at one time. By noon, the weather cleared up. The most rainfall in the county was Wan Dafa in Ren'ai Township. The power plant has 33.5 mm, and Puli Litan, which ranks second, also has 22 mm, even exceeding the rainfall in January.

Farmers believe that the long-drought land and crops are finally moistened by rain, which will definitely help, and more water sources will be injected into the areas that are irrigated by turns. However, during the spring plowing period, the water consumption of many crops is quite large, and the short-term rainfall is still unable to make ends meet.

The front passed, and rain finally fell in Puli Township, Nantou County after nearly a month.
