Heavy rain occurred in Hanzhong, Shaanxi, and more than 2 1 1,000 people were evacuated. What impact did this rainstorm have on the local area?

Heavy rain hit Hanzhong, Shaanxi, and more than 2 1 1,000 people were evacuated. The rainstorm caused many roads to be interrupted, and water supply and electricity were also affected. Rainfall occurred during the National Day holiday, which had a great impact on local tourism.

This year's autumn flood season has set a historical record in many places. Not only Hanzhong, Shaanxi, but also many other cities are affected. Although it is a rainstorm in autumn, it can bring no less impact and loss than in summer.

The impact of heavy rain can be roughly divided into the following two types.

First, it has a great impact on traffic. Rainstorm weather has a great influence on road traffic safety and traffic travel. Hanzhong is a hilly area, and many local highways are built on the Rocky Mountains. Long-term rainstorm erosion will lead to local mudslides and landslides. These natural disasters occur on both sides of the road, which will cause damage and congestion to the road.

Roads are washed away and blocked, which is also a frequent danger after heavy rain in mountainous areas. The interruption of roads has brought great inconvenience to local residents. Vehicles passing through this area will also be stranded due to road disruption.

Second, it has a great impact on residents' lives and buildings. The arrival of heavy rain will make the local rivers soar, and the geological disasters brought by heavy rain will affect the local power equipment and water supply equipment. When the power equipment is damaged, the power supply will be interrupted; Similarly, if the water supply equipment is damaged, the water supply will be interrupted.

Some buildings near mountains and rivers will also be in danger due to the influence of heavy rain. Debris flow on the mountain will have an impact on the house, and the flood of the river will scour the foundation of the house, and the house may collapse.

Appropriate rainfall is good for everything, but once it is excessive, it will lead to disaster and increase the frequency of disasters. These effects are more common in rainstorm weather. According to the weather forecast, we need to make active and timely preparations for disaster prevention and mitigation to minimize losses and dangers.
