       2013year6month24day, an extraordinarily heavy rainstorm struck Chengbei District, Hangzhou. On Pingshui Road in Gongshu District, Hangzhou, within just2hours, water accumulated to a depth of40cm. The rain poured for over6hours straight, starting around5in the evening and only gradually stopping after11at night.

This rainstorm caused many vehicles to break down and traffic to become paralyzed. This was not just a rainstorm; it was a test—a major test of people's psychology and of the construction of urban infrastructure, the perfection of drainage engineering, and management and maintenance.
