China Naming Network - Eight-character Q&A - What level of typhoon shutdown?

What level of typhoon shutdown?

Typhoon above magnitude 6 can stop work.

According to the relevant regulations, when the outdoor typhoon reaches level 6 or above, the relevant outdoor staff need to stop working. This is because when the typhoon reaches level 6 or above, the wind is already very strong, which may pose a serious threat to the safety of staff. At this time, outdoor work may encounter dangerous situations such as objects being blown down by the wind, flying sand and stones, and trees collapsing.

The scope of shutdown is not limited to lifting operations, but also includes other outdoor operations, such as building construction and road maintenance. In severe weather conditions such as gale, rainstorm, heavy snow and fog caused by typhoon of magnitude 6 or above, in order to ensure the life safety and property safety of staff, it is necessary to stop working.

Matters needing attention during typhoon:

1. Pay attention to meteorological early warning: pay attention to the weather forecast and typhoon early warning information released by the meteorological department in time, and understand the path, intensity and expected influence area of the typhoon, so as to make corresponding prevention and response measures.

2. Indoor shelter from the wind: During the typhoon, stay indoors as far as possible, away from windows and external walls, and avoid being directly affected by wind and rain. Close the doors and windows to ensure indoor safety.

3. Avoid going out: Avoid going out, especially during typhoon landing or rainstorm. Strong winds and heavy rains brought by typhoons may cause dangers such as trees falling down and objects flying, posing a threat to personal safety.

4. Flood control: The rainstorm brought by typhoon may cause flood disaster, especially in low-lying areas and areas along the river. Evacuate to a safe place in time when necessary to avoid wading and being washed away by the flood.
