What should I do immediately when the outdoor water overflows into the room during the rainstorm?

Halfway through 2020, the first half of this year is even more disastrous. First, in 1 and February, the novel coronavirus outbreak swept across the country, and the number of infected people increased by thousands of digits every day. Then the cities will be closed nationwide to reduce the infection between people and between people and the air, and reduce the number of infected people. For the safety of students, the Ministry of Education decided to postpone the start of school, and the specific start time depends on the epidemic situation. Students all over the country have carried out online teaching and actively responded to the country? Suspension of classes and non-stop learning? . The national epidemic situation has just improved, and Beijing has been closed due to the impact of overseas epidemics.

With the arrival of summer, heavy rains in southern China have caused natural disasters such as landslides, flash floods and mudslides. A flash flood broke out in Mianning County, Liangshan Prefecture, Sichuan Province, which has caused many deaths and lost contact. Recently, the Beijing Meteorological Observatory issued an orange warning signal for mountain torrents. Compared with previous years, the rainfall in China this year is particularly heavy, and we may be attacked by rainstorm at any time. Therefore, we must have certain safety protection awareness and learn certain safety protection measures. We must form the good habit of watching the weather forecast and try to stay at home after the rainstorm warning is issued.

Speaking of heavy rain, the rainfall is particularly heavy. If we live on a lower floor or square, the outdoor water will easily overflow into the room. What should we do at this time?

First of all, we should immediately check whether the lines and natural gas equipment in our home are safe, and immediately turn off the main power switch in our home. Why is this? This is mainly because water is a conductor. If the power switch is not turned off, it will be electrified due to the influence of water conduction, thus causing people in the room to get an electric shock. We also need to put all the movable sockets at home in a higher place.

The next thing we need to do is to find a relatively large thing, such as a sandbag or a water deflector, and put it at the door to reduce the influx of outdoor rain.

Third, it is necessary to keep the sewer at home unobstructed and better discharge the accumulated water that overflows into the room.
