Shaping up as a year of the big floods. Bangladesh, India have had recent floods, now Guangdong province in SE China.
BBC: China's National Meteorological Center said the average rainfall in Guangdong, Fujian and Guangxi provinces between early May and the middle of June reached 621 millimetres - the highest since 1961.

621 mm is not massive for the whole month - during rainy season, but caused record level flooding. Part of the deal appears to be that places not geared up for big falls, are getting them.

Meanwhile heatwaves/droughts happening in US & Europe - some extreme stuff going down one way or the other.
