中新社北京4月18日电 (记者 陈溯)近期，中国南方地区连续遭受强对流天气和大规模的强降雨侵袭，给当地民众生活和农业生产带来严重影响。为应对这一严峻形势，中国气象局于18日正式拉响暴雨三级应急响应，全力做好灾害防御工作。
据气象部门监测，南方多地出现短时强降雨、雷暴大风等极端天气现象，局部地区降雨量已超过历史同期平均水平。湖南、江西、广东、广西等地的部分地区遭受洪涝灾害，道路、农田受损，部分低洼地区出现内涝，给当地居民的出行和日常生活带来不便。
中国气象局在启动应急响应后，立即组织各地气象台加强监测预警，及时发布气象信息，为政府部门和社会公众提供决策支持。同时，各地应急管理部门也已进入高度戒备状态，积极开展防洪排涝、转移安置受灾群众等工作，确保人民生命财产安全。
专家指出，此类强对流天气是春季气候特点之一，但今年的强度和频率显得尤为突出。他们呼吁社会各界密切关注气象预报，做好防范措施，特别是农业部门需加强农作物的防护工作，减少灾害损失。
目前，中央和地方政府正全力协调资源，加大对受影响地区的支持，力争将灾害影响降到最低。相关部门将持续关注天气变化，以最快速度、最有效的方式应对可能的灾害风险，确保人民群众的生命安全和正常生活秩序。

**News Content:**
**Beijing, April 18 (Xinhua) –** China’s Meteorological Administration (CMA) has activated a Level 3 emergency response for heavy rain, as multiple southern regions face the challenge of severe convective rainstorms.
In recent days, southern China has been battered by intense convective weather and widespread heavy rainfall, significantly impacting local residents’ lives and agricultural production. To address this severe situation, the CMA officially sounded the Level 3 emergency response for rainstorms on April 18, making all-out efforts to prepare for disaster prevention.
According to meteorological observations, short-duration heavy rains, thunderstorms, and gales have been reported in several southern areas, with some localities recording precipitation levels above average for this time of the year. Parts of Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangdong, and Guangxi have experienced flooding, causing damage to roads and farmland, and leading to inundation in low-lying areas, disrupting the daily lives and travel of residents.
Following the emergency response activation, the CMA has promptly organized local meteorological stations to enhance monitoring and forecasting, issuing timely weather information to support decision-making for government agencies and the public. Meanwhile, local emergency management departments have gone on high alert, actively conducting flood control, drainage, and the relocation of affected populations to ensure the safety of lives and property.
Experts note that such convective weather is a characteristic of spring, but this year’s intensity and frequency are particularly pronounced. They urge all sectors of society to closely monitor weather forecasts, implement preventive measures, and for the agricultural sector, strengthen protection for crops to minimize灾害 losses.
At present, central and local governments are working diligently to coordinate resources and increase support for affected areas, striving to minimize the impact of the disaster. Relevant departments will continue to monitor weather changes and respond swiftly and effectively to potential risks, prioritizing the safety of the public and maintaining normal living秩序.
