Looks like it will be a year of extreme weather ahead.
China Daily reports that at least 48 people have been killed in rainstorms in southern and eastern China over the last five days-- "Fourteen rural residents were killed in a lightning strike on Sunday while they were working in fields in Jiangxi province... A 56-year-old woman and her 14-year-old grandson also died when they sought shelter under a corrugated iron roof, while two residents of Nanchang city were killed while they huddled under a tree, also on Sunday... In nearby Zhejiang province, five people building a tomb were killed in a lightning storm."
