Red warning of Taihu Lake flood, how to deal with the flood?

Flood disaster is caused by many factors, including natural and human activities. Natural factors such as meteorological rainfall and geographical conditions are objective facts that human beings cannot change. Since the summer of this year, disasters have been severe in all parts of China, and a red warning has been issued for the flood in Taihu Lake. When the flood comes, we should do the following things to deal with it.

First of all, we must pay attention to the latest weather forecast. It is rainy in summer and autumn in most parts of China, so we should always pay attention to weather forecast and disaster warning information. Affected by the monsoon climate, precipitation in summer and autumn in China is concentrated, floods are frequent, and the disaster area is wide and sudden, which not only directly causes serious loss of life and property, but also easily leads to the outbreak of infectious diseases such as cholera and hepatitis A. We should pay close attention to the weather forecast and flood information in summer and autumn, make disaster prevention preparations in combination with its geographical location and topographic conditions, and familiarize ourselves with the best evacuation route in advance.

Second, prepare for the flood disaster. In response to the flood disaster, local governments will formulate emergency plans in advance, and individuals should provide information through government websites or mass media. Residents and families in flood-prone areas should bring their own simple life-saving equipment and prepare for self-help and mutual rescue when the flood is too late to evacuate. Prepare life-saving equipment in advance, such as wooden pots, wood, large foam plastics and other items that can float on the water. Emergency flashlights and tent lights are used for self-help when trapped. Prepare for secondary disasters such as landslides, mudslides and house collapses. In addition to floods, secondary disasters such as landslides, mudslides and house collapses are prone to occur in mountainous areas in rainy season. Try to stay away from hillsides and rivers. In the process of continuous rainfall, if you find signs such as loose mountain soil, cracked houses, sudden interruption or increase of river water, you should evacuate to a safe area in time. When evacuating in flood, attention should be paid to turning off the gas valve and the main power switch. Household air valve, power switch, etc. In flood disaster, it is easy to be leaked by external force, which may cause gas explosion and leakage. So the evacuation should be closed in time. Keep communication open for evacuation and calling for help. In order to prevent the mobile phone from being damaged by water, please put it in a waterproof plastic bag when you leave.

Finally, maintaining an optimistic attitude helps to solve the problem. In the flood disaster, people are prone to anxiety, depression, despair and other negative emotions, and may also have serious mental illness. Most disasters will eventually pass, and there is no hurdle in life. Maintaining an optimistic attitude will help us to respond positively and rebuild our homeland.
