What should I do if a typhoon comes?

Typhoon is a kind of natural disasters, which refers to tropical cyclones formed on the vast sea surface above 26 ℃ in the tropics or subtropics. Every summer and autumn, many violent storms called typhoons occur in the northwest Pacific Ocean adjacent to China. Some of them dissipate in the sea, and some go on land, bringing strong winds and torrential rain. Let's take a look at what we should do when the typhoon comes.

What are the benefits of typhoons?

1. Typhoons bring abundant fresh water to people. The typhoon brought a lot of Rain Water to the coasts of China, the Sea of Japan, India, Southeast Asia and the southeastern United States.

2. Tropical and subtropical areas near the equator are exposed to the longest sunshine and are unbearably hot and dry. If there is no typhoon to disperse the heat in these areas, it will be hotter, the surface sand shortage will be more serious, and the cold zone will be colder and the temperate zone will disappear. China will not have a spring city like Kunming, nor will there be Guangzhou, which is evergreen all the year round. "Beidacang" and Inner Mongolia grasslands will no longer exist.

3. The typhoon can reach a maximum speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour. This huge energy can directly cause disaster to human beings, but it also relies on this huge energy flow to maintain the heat balance of the earth, so that human beings can live and work in peace and contentment.

4. Typhoons can also increase fishing production. Whenever a typhoon hits, it rolls up the nutrients at the bottom of the river and sea, and the number of baits increases, attracting schools of fish to gather near the surface of the water, and the catch increases naturally.

What is the harm of typhoon?

1. The gale weather brought by typhoon is one of the main harms of typhoon, especially the gale near the center of typhoon is very powerful. The following paragraph will give us a visual concept to understand the harm of strong winds. It is difficult to walk with umbrellas at level 6, it is inconvenient for level 7 to walk in the wind, branches are broken at level 8, roof tiles are at level 9, trees are uprooted at level 10, falling objects from height, dilapidated buildings collapse and so on are all accidents that easily occur in typhoon days.

2. Typhoon is often accompanied by rainstorm, even heavy rainstorm or torrential rain. Torrential rain is easy to cause floods, resulting in villages, houses, ships, bridges, amusement facilities and other flooded, or even washed away, resulting in loss of life and property. Torrential rain may cause water conservancy project accident and serious dangerous situation. Torrential rain may also cause landslides, debris flows and other geological disasters, resulting in casualties.

3. Storm surge is easy to destroy seawall dike, culvert gate and wharf. Bank revetment and other facilities can cause seawalls to break, sea water to pour back, and may even directly wash away nearby people, resulting in casualties.

4. Typhoons often bring strong winds and torrential rain when passing through, causing huge waves on the sea and seriously threatening the safety of navigation. The storm flood caused by typhoon landfall may destroy crops and various building facilities, resulting in huge losses of people's lives and property.

What if a typhoon comes?

1. When the typhoon comes, the wind is strong, so you should go out less, never walk on the embankments or bridges of rivers, lakes and seas, and do not drive or ride bikes in areas affected by strong winds.

2. If you see a wire blown off by the wind or fall to the ground on the road, do not touch it with your hands or approach it.

3. Areas prone to disasters such as landslides and areas where high-intensity torrential rains have occurred should be vigilant and evacuated in time.

4. if dangerous houses or stagnant water are found, contact the relevant departments in time, obey the command of the relevant departments in case of danger, and transfer safely.

5. In case of thunderstorm and strong wind, the running household appliances should be turned off in time, and the plug should be unplugged. If water inadvertently enters the home, the power should be cut off immediately.

6. when driving a car, park the car in a safe place, get off quickly, rely on buildings to avoid the typhoon, and never take a chance to hide in the car to avoid the typhoon. When the typhoon comes, the car is not safe enough to withstand the typhoon.

7. Friends with cars are requested not to park their cars in underground garages or low-lying places, but to park as high as possible. Parking places should pay attention to high-altitude objects, and there are also dangerous areas next to billboards and trees.

8, when driving, pay attention to the depth of stagnant water, if the stagnant water is flameout, please do not ignite, and please pay attention to the manhole cover!

9. Do not take shelter from the wind and rain in dangerous old houses, factories, sheds, temporary buildings, projects under construction, municipal utilities (such as street lamps, etc.), cranes, construction elevators, scaffolding, telephone poles, trees, billboards, iron towers, etc., to prevent these things from collapsing in strong winds and hurting people.
