The rainstorm water level in Baoan, Shenzhen has risen, and some passengers are trapped. How to protect yourself in the rainstorm?

For many people, the change of weather has a great influence on them. Generally speaking, cloudy days with a little sunshine are the most popular. In late autumn, the rainy weather will last for several days, which will not only make us feel irritable, but also make our trip very inconvenient. Recently, a sudden rainstorm in Shenzhen caused waterlogging in many places, causing people and vehicles to be trapped in the rain. What happened? Let's have a look.

1. Sudden rainstorm and short-term heavy rainfall. Due to untimely discharge, water accumulated on the road surface and the water level rose rapidly. As a result, a bus near Tao Jian Chemical Dormitory, Shuitian Community, Shiyan Street, Shenzhen was flooded and trapped, with 20 passengers hiding on the roof waiting for rescue. The situation is very critical. This short-term heavy rainfall is mainly concentrated in Baoan, Guangming, Longhua and other areas, and the maximum accumulated rainfall has reached 71.3mm. Shiyan Street in Baoan District is the most seriously affected by this heavy rainfall.

Second, rescue operations. The Shenzhen Fire Rescue Detachment received 8 alarms about being trapped by heavy rain in a short time. City Fire Rescue Detachment immediately dispatched 23 fire engines 128 officers and men to the scene to carry out rescue. Because the water is too fast, rescue vehicles can't pass, so firefighters can only carry water rescue equipment to rescue the trapped people. After some efforts, * * * evacuated and rescued 78 people trapped, and no casualties were caused.

Third, self-defense under heavy rain When encountering heavy rain, you should take the initiative to reduce or directly cancel all outdoor activities. At this time, outdoor activities are very dangerous. If you must go out to deal with things, don't stay in places with too much water, and don't open an umbrella or make a phone call in an open place to avoid being struck by lightning. You can't stand where there are telephone poles. After the heavy rain, there may be electricity leakage. When going out for activities, you should also bring rainproof equipment such as raincoats or rain boots, and inform your family about your safety in time.
