Is Luonan, Shaanxi Province a flood-prone area? How to take protective measures in advance?

Yes, Luonan, Shaanxi Province is a flood-prone area.

On August 5, Luonan County, Shaanxi Province was suddenly hit by a heavy rain. Due to this sudden rainstorm, the water levels of nearby rivers, reservoirs and lakes rose rapidly. This rainfall far exceeded the water storage capacity of Luonan County, and the crops, public facilities, roads and houses in the county were damaged to varying degrees due to this rainfall. It is understood that the flood affected about 90 villages and more than 70,000 people, and the direct economic loss reached more than one million yuan. In recent years, floods have occurred frequently, so how to take prevention and control measures when disasters come?

In flood-prone areas, the flood control department in China will pay close attention to the weather changes. Once there is the possibility of rainstorm, the flood control department will definitely remind local personnel to prepare for disaster avoidance through radio, television or online news release. When we know that the flood is coming, we should move to a safe place as soon as possible. At this time, we must put personal safety first, and we can't stay at home for a long time because we care about money. If it is too late to move, you should avoid staying in low-lying places and try to avoid floods in high places. At this time, the areas that can be considered to avoid suspicion are roofs, tall buildings and high walls. If the flood level continues to rise, which has endangered us, we should look for everything that can save lives, such as floating tanks, big bubbles, rafts, lifebuoys, basketball and other hollow balls. It is worth mentioning that you must not sit in the basin, because it will easily fall over, so you should turn the basin upside down or put it in the water to float. Of course, these methods are just a last resort. If the water level does not endanger us, we might as well wait for help. These are just a few suggestions. When the crisis comes, you must contact the local government or rescue and relief personnel as much as possible, wait patiently before their arrival, and pay attention to the flood situation at any time so as to save yourself in time when necessary.
