What do you need to do and pay attention to in the face of flood?

First, in the flood-prone season every year, that is, before the flood comes, we must first make the worst plans and buy necessary emergency materials in advance, including bottled water, fast food, spare batteries, etc., to prevent the threat caused by power failure. Bottled water is bought because it is convenient to carry and drink. In addition, the most crucial point is that during this period, due to the influence of floods, tap water is likely to be polluted to varying degrees, and drinking polluted water sources is likely to lead to illness. You know, once it starts to rain or flood, you won't have time to go shopping, even if you have time, you can't go out, so these household necessities must be ready before the disaster comes.

Second, after the flood, if the flood rises quickly, you may have to hide on the roof or climb trees. At this time, you should collect everything that can be used to send distress signals, such as flashlights, whistles, flags, sequins and so on. And send out a distress signal in time to try to be rescued. You need some rope or sheets to connect your body with the chimney to avoid falling off the roof. After ensuring your temporary safety, you should pay attention to a more serious problem. Before being rescued, the flood under your feet will cause many other irresistible external threats, such as insects and mosquitoes. In fact, this kind of mosquito likes water very much and breeds quickly on the water. These mosquitoes are likely to carry a lot of viruses and bacteria. Unfortunately, being infected means that the problem will rise to another level, and the result may be more serious than the flood.

Third, if you are told that you need to evacuate during the hedging period, you should evacuate to higher ground as much as possible, and move to hillsides, highlands and other places in an organized manner according to the scheduled route. In the case of being caught off guard and surrounded by floods, we should use boats, rafts, door panels, etc. Transfer water as much as possible, and never hide in the basement or low ditch, or you will be in danger of drowning.

Fourth, if you are hit by a flood while driving, don't think about how much your car is worth and how expensive the interior is. Run as high as you can. If you are unfortunately trapped in a car, and the car and people are trapped on a low-lying road, the first reaction is to abandon the car and run away, find a stick as an escape weapon, check whether the road surface under your feet is solid, prevent yourself from falling into a deep pit, and then quickly go high, regardless of the rain, and go as high as possible. Of course, if you can, it's best to avoid walking in the water, because running water is likely to wash you away, or collapsed wires may electrocute you.
