/kloc-0 From April 30th to May 30th, 2000, Nantong, Jiangsu Province was affected by strong convective weather, with strong hail, strong wind and heavy rain. In many places, the wind speed reached 37 to 39 meters per second, and in a few places, there was a strong wind of 14 of 45.4 meters per second, which affected 13688 people. At present, the gale has caused 165438. There are few casualties caused by windy weather, but the strength of the wind to a certain extent is quite scary. Let's see how strong winds hurt people.

When the wind reaches a certain level, it can directly roll up and blow away outdoor people, causing people to fall into rivers or fall to the ground and hit houses or trees and get injured. The strongest gale in Nantong, Jiangsu reached 14, which could completely uproot trees and blow them away. Some people lost their lives in this incident because they were swept into the river by the strong wind and drowned in the water. Therefore, when encountering a strong wind disaster, you should run back to the house as soon as possible, or find a solid building to escape. You can't stay outdoors for a long time, and it's not suitable to stay in weak old houses and temporary houses.

Strong winds blew down houses and trees. In the case of strong wind, some unstable or crumbling old houses may be blown down, and people in the houses are easily crushed by the collapsed houses. Sometimes the situation is more complicated. Some houses will not be blown down by the wind, but there are big trees next to them. As a result, the tree was blown down by the strong wind and hit the house. The house collapsed and the people living in it were injured. In addition, there are many forms of injuries caused by strong winds, such as blowing down telephone poles and hitting passers-by or passing cars; Blow up billboards, break branches and trees, and all kinds of sundries to hurt pedestrians; It can also blow down some fences that are not strong enough to crush pedestrians, take away the water heater, satellite pot and roof tiles on the roof, and hurt passers-by when it falls to the ground.

When the wind blows over cars and ships, some people choose to hide in cars. In fact, if the wind is too strong, the car is not safe, because the wind may still blow the car over, or even blow over a few somersaults, and the people in the car are easily injured. If the car is blown into the river, it is even more dangerous, so it is better to run to a solid building when the wind comes. Strong winds can also cause harm to crew members who cannot return to the sea. Under the strong wind and waves, not only the crew will easily fall into the water, but even the ship may be wiped out. Once they fall into the sea in this bad weather, there is little chance of survival. Therefore, whether going out to sea or aviation operations, we must pay attention to the weather forecast in advance, predict the future climate, and avoid the loss of life and property caused by bad weather such as strong winds.
