The official Xinhua News Agency said nine people were killed in the city of Dongguan in southern Guangdong province after a Wednesday hailstorm. It said 272 others were injured from the storm, which caused economic losses of 357 million yuan ($57.5 million).
Three other people died from hailstorms that began Tuesday in neighboring Hunan province, where 1,900 houses have collapsed, according to Xinhua’s report Saturday.
Southern China has seen thunderstorms, hurricanes and hailstorms in the past few days. China’s Meteorological Administration says the severe weather is expected to continue through the weekend.
