How long was the flood of Yangtze river in 1931?
The Yangtze River has flooded more than 1,000 times, including in 1931 when an estimated 145,000 people died. Flooding usually happens in late summer as a result of monsoon rains and mountain snow melt. The flood in 1931 covered 186 counties and cities. The River is 6,300 kilometers long and has more than 700 tributaries.
The river in China that has been responsible for the worst flooding and associated loss of life is the Yellow (Huang He) River, which flooded in July-August 1931 and was responsible for an estimated 3.7 million deaths from drowning, subsequent famine, and associated disease. This flood has been called the deadliest natural disaster ever recorded (in terms of loss of life). Between July and November 1931, some 34,000 square miles of land were completely flooded and another 8,000 sq mi partially flooded; 51 million people were affected. This event is sometimes erroneously attributed to the Yangtze River. There have been other many deadly Yellow River floods, most notably in 1887 and 1938.
