Hazards of low temperature, rain, snow and freezing weather
Low temperature, rain, snow and freezing weather may cause transmission lines and equipment to freeze, increase the weight of lines, and even cause lines to break. At the same time, iced lines may also cause electric shock accidents. Long-term low temperature, rain, snow and freezing weather will cause serious harm to crops. Low temperature will lead to frostbite or even death of crops, while snow and ice weather will affect the normal growth of crops.
Freezing will cause the groundwater level to drop, the river speed to slow down or even freeze, which will affect the normal operation of water supply and water treatment facilities. People's domestic water and agricultural irrigation water may be affected. Due to traffic jams, production stagnation, sales decline and other reasons, low temperature, rain, snow and freezing weather will bring huge losses to the local economy. Especially in agriculture, tourism and other industries, this loss may be more obvious.
In extreme cases, low temperature, rain, snow and freezing weather may also lead to paralysis of water supply, power supply and other infrastructure, affecting people's normal life. In addition, this weather may also lead to traffic accidents, fires and other emergencies, requiring a lot of rescue forces.
