Having experienced the effects of Typhoon Doksuri and the ensuing floods, the temporary relocation sites in Changshou township in Northeast China's Heilongjiang province are once again bustling with activity.
 
According to the latest weather forecasts, Typhoon Khanu is expected to affect areas including Heilongjiang province, potentially bringing heavy rainfall.
 
Changshou School was selected as a relocation site for residents living along the Mayi River in the township.
