Beijing has recorded its heaviest rainfall this year as the remnants of Typhoon Doksuri passed through China’s capital, forcing more than 31,000 people to evacuate their homes in the city. Heavy rain continued to fall in Beijing as well as in Hebei, Tianjin and eastern Shanxi as Doksuri dissipated over northern China, the China Meteorological Administration said. The storm has been felt in China since Friday , first hitting the southern Fujian province with heavy rainfall . China's meteorological agency warned that Doksuri's impact was far from over despite the reduced intensity. The heavy torrential rainfall had forced authorities to issue the highest level of alert in northern China, covering millions of people. The alert included 22 million people in Beijing and 14 million in Tianjin. This is the first time such a heavy rainfall warning has been issued since 2011.
