What do you mean by freezing snow and ice?

Refers to bad weather such as low temperature, freezing and heavy snow in winter.

Life impact: Frozen snow and ice will limit outdoor activities, and people prefer to stay indoors. Low temperature will also lead to an increase in heating demand, which may lead to tight supply of electricity and gas. In addition, snow and ice will also cause frost cracking and structural risks to houses and buildings. Traffic jam: road icing and heavy snow accumulation will lead to an increase in traffic accidents and traffic jams. Frozen snow and ice may cause flight delays, cancellations and even airport closures. Railways and public transportation will also be affected, resulting in the reduction or cancellation of flights.

Agriculture and rural life: Frozen snow and ice have a direct impact on agricultural output. The freezing of plants may lead to the reduction of crop production, and the feeding of livestock and poultry may be troubled. At the same time, winter may lead to water supply problems in rural areas, and frozen water sources will cause difficulties for irrigation and domestic water use. Health and safety: In extremely cold conditions, people need to pay special attention to keep healthy and prevent colds, frostbite and other health problems related to low temperature. In addition, the risk of natural disasters such as avalanches and frozen lakes or rivers will also increase.

Government and emergency measures: The government and relevant institutions usually take a series of measures to deal with severe cold weather, including road deicing, heating facilities maintenance and rescue operations. In addition, some areas will provide temporary shelter and food aid to ensure that the basic needs of vulnerable groups are met.

Suggestions and precautions in the face of ice and snow cold environment

Keep healthy and safe: wear warm clothes, including hats, gloves and thick shoes. People living in cold areas should regularly check the function of indoor heating equipment and ensure its normal operation. Especially for vulnerable groups, such as the elderly and children, we should pay special attention to their health and safety.

Prepare family emergency supplies: store enough food, water and medicine for several days in case of supply interruption. There should be emergency lights and spare batteries at home in case of power failure. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that the smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector at home work normally.
