Expand knowledge: how to defend against heavy rain or heavy rain?

If it rains heavily, you can defend yourself from the following aspects.

1. In low-lying residential areas, measures of "small enclosure" can be taken according to local conditions, such as building fences, placing water baffles at the gate, and configuring small pumps.

2. Don't litter, sundries, etc. Enter the sewer to prevent blockage, causing water accumulation during heavy rain.

3. Power sockets, switches, etc. Residential buildings on the ground floor should be moved to a safe place above the ground 1 m. Once the outdoor water overflows into the house, cut off the power supply in time to prevent electric shock from hurting people.

4. Pay attention to observation when walking in stagnant water. Prevent falling into manholes or pits or holes.

5. The river is an important drainage channel in the city, and it is not allowed to dump garbage and waste at will to prevent siltation.
