What should I do if I encounter hail?

1, you should quickly enter the building or a solid bunker to escape. If you can't find a building or shelter for the time being, you should squat down against the wind, then cover your head with your clothes and hold your head with your hands to protect your head and face. If you have a bag, you can wear it on your head for better protection.

2. Before you squat down, look around for dangerous goods that are easy to fall. If there is, move the place immediately, because there is usually a strong wind when it hails, to avoid the strong wind blowing off things that are easy to fall and hitting yourself;

When hail is accompanied by lightning, you need to pay attention. Remember not to hide under trees or beside telephone poles to avoid being struck by lightning.

In case of being injured by hail, you can temporarily apply cold compress to the injured part to stop bleeding, and then quickly find an opportunity to go to the hospital for treatment.

Although disastrous weather such as hail and blizzard may not cause disasters, it does happen from time to time, so you need to pay attention to protect yourself. In addition to adding clothes to keep warm, we need to reduce outdoor activities to avoid frostbite in snowstorms. When it hails, we should take shelter indoors, such as using rain gear or other substitutes to protect our heads, and move indoors as soon as possible to avoid injury.
