Continuous heavy rainfall in Shanxi and Shaanxi has affected millions of people. In the face of natural disasters, how should we save ourselves?

In the face of nature, our strength is always very small. When natural disasters come, we can't resist, but we can do a good job of prevention in advance to minimize the losses caused by natural disasters. Some natural disasters are difficult to predict, such as earthquakes and mudslides, but some disasters can be known in advance. For example, through the weather forecast, you can know when the rainstorm will come and take precautions in advance. Shanxi was affected by heavy rainfall, 1 1 More than one million people in the city were affected. A large number of farmland was flooded and crops were not harvested. Shanxi Fenhe River also suffered the strongest flood peak in decades, and the downstream was seriously affected by the breach. Similarly, the disaster situation in Shaanxi Province is also very serious. The relevant departments have organized more than 20,000 people to move, and the losses caused by extreme weather are immeasurable. In the face of natural disasters, one more survival skill and one more guarantee.

1. When hiking, avoid puddles and stay away from mountains. In heavy rainfall, try to reduce travel. If you must travel, you should make relevant preparations, such as taking rain gear. Avoid puddles when traveling. Some puddles don't look big, but it may be dangerous to force them through. The possibility of landslide increases when it rains for a long time, so stay away from the mountain to ensure safety.

Second, in case of sudden flood, climb to high places to avoid danger. The dam breaks and the flood flows downstream, which may lead to the house being flooded. In case of sudden flood, if you have the opportunity to move to a high place, you must move it in time. If it is too late to move to a high place, you can climb your own roof or climb a tree first. In short, climb high to save your life and wait for rescue.

Third, try to save yourself by using the things around you when you fall into the water. If you are unlucky enough to fall into the water in the rainstorm, you should learn to save yourself. You can save yourself with pots, boards and other items that are easy to float at home. Pay attention to lightning protection in thunderstorm weather, try not to hide under trees, call the power department in time when encountering fallen wires, and move around more.
