How do we deal with the rainstorm?

Rainstorm refers to the rainfall in which the amount of water falling to the ground in the atmosphere reaches or exceeds 50 mm every day, and it is often mixed with strong winds. Heavy rain occurs when the daily rainfall exceeds 100 mm, and heavy rain occurs when the rainfall exceeds 250 mm. The main hazards of heavy rain are: causing the water level of rivers and lakes to skyrocket, flooding crops, destroying farmland, and causing crop yield reduction or crop failure; Destroy roads, bridges, houses, communication facilities and water conservancy facilities, and destroy banks and dams, causing rivers and reservoirs to burst and causing major disasters; Causing flash floods, landslides and urban waterlogging, which directly threaten people's lives and property safety; Causing serious soil erosion and affecting the ecological environment.

Main measures to prevent rainstorm: dredge waterways to prevent congestion. During the continuous rainstorm, all kinds of waterways should be kept open to prevent water accumulation caused by garbage and debris blocking the waterways. Fix the roof in case it rains.

Before the rainstorm, urban and rural residents should carefully check their houses, especially pay attention to repairing the roof in time to prevent rain from damaging furniture or having nowhere to hide; Prevent houses from collapsing and tilting due to rainwater irrigation. Turn off the power to prevent personal injury. The storm is very violent. Once there is water in the house, the power supply of household appliances should be cut off immediately to prevent the accumulated water from being charged and hurting people.

Reduce going out and prevent accidents. During the rainy season, pay attention to listening to the weather forecast and early warning information at any time, arrange production activities and travel plans reasonably, and minimize going out.

Stay away from the mountains in case of accidents. Rainstorms in mountainous areas sometimes cause geological disasters such as mudslides and landslides. Villagers or pedestrians nearby should try to stay away from dangerous mountains and beware of dangerous situations.

Emergency points: walk in the water and avoid wells and pits. When traveling, heavy rain causes a large area of water accumulation, especially children, women and the elderly should pay attention to the relevant warning signs around them and pay attention to the road surface to prevent them from falling into manholes, pits and ditches. Observe more to prevent electric shock. The storm struck and was caught off guard. Remember to observe carefully and stay away from wires, electrical appliances and other facilities to prevent casualties caused by electric leakage. In case of water accumulation, the car will drive around. In case of sudden rainstorm during driving, drivers should be careful that the water is too deep on the road or under the overpass, try to bypass as much as possible, and do not force through. Build mounds to prevent waterlogging. In order to prevent rainwater from pouring into the room during the rainstorm, residents can take measures such as placing water baffles, piling up soil ridges or other effective measures to block it. When the rainstorm comes in mountainous areas, we should pay attention to prevent mountain torrents, don't stay on the hillside, but also pay attention to dangerous mountains and beware of sudden mudslides.

Self-rescue and escape methods for lightning and flood season disasters and accidents: If we are outdoors during lightning, remember not to stay on high-rise platforms, enter isolated huts and sentry boxes, and avoid thunderstorms under big trees. If absolutely necessary, be sure to keep a distance of 3 meters from your torso, squat down and put your legs together. It is not advisable to stay on the water surface and water edge. If the ants on the head, neck and hands crawl away and their hair stands on end when thunder and lightning strike, it means that lightning is going to happen. You should lie on the ground and keep your head as low as possible, because the head is more vulnerable to lightning than other parts of your body, which can reduce the risk of being struck by lightning and remove the metal ornaments, hairpins and necklaces you are wearing.

What should I do in case of a flood? Threatened by flood, if there is enough time, it should be moved to hillside, highland and other places in an organized way according to the predetermined route; When the flood comes too fast to move, you should immediately climb the roof, tall buildings, big trees and high walls, take temporary shelter and wait for rescue; Don't swim alone; Don't stay by the river, avoid crossing the river and prevent being washed away by the flood; When the high-voltage tower is found to be toppled, the wire sags or breaks, stay away from danger, and do not touch or get close to it to prevent electric shock.

What if the house is flooded? When houses in low-lying areas are flooded or besieged, first, arrange for family members to move to the roof quickly; The second is to find a way to send a distress signal; The third is to use floating objects such as bamboo and wood to move to a safe place.

What should I do if I am trapped by the flood? Life-saving equipment can be made from floating objects such as bed boards, door panels, boxes, washbasins, barrels and discarded tire tubes. Collect more food and signal equipment (such as whistle, flashlight, brightly colored flags or sheets, etc.). ) Before you run away; If the flood does not overflow the head and the surrounding trees are dense, you can consider using ropes to escape. Find a rope (sheets, sheets, etc.) strong enough and long enough. Can also be torn off instead). First tie one end of the rope to a firm place in the house, then take the rope to the nearest tree, walk around this tree several times, then move to the next tree, and so on, and gradually move to a higher place.

If you can't save yourself, you can wait for the rescue team of the government department to save you.
