Wenzhou typhoon forecast: The storm will sweep across the city, residents need to be prepared for precautions
Recently, the Wenzhou Meteorological Observatory released a worrying news: a strong typhoon is about to hit Wenzhou City. According to forecasts, the typhoon will sweep across the city, accompanied by violent winds and rain. In order to ensure the safety of citizens, the Wenzhou Meteorological Observatory reminds residents to be prepared to deal with possible disasters.
Understand the characteristics and hazards of typhoons
Typhoons are a strong meteorological phenomenon that pose a great threat to people's lives and property due to their huge winds and heavy rains. Understanding the characteristics and hazards of typhoons is the first step to prepare for them.
The characteristics of typhoons include: strong winds, heavy rain, storm surge and lightning. Strong winds can cause buildings to collapse, trees to break, power lines to break, etc., causing huge losses to people's lives and property. Heavy rains can trigger natural disasters such as flash floods and mudslides, posing serious threats to residents in low-lying areas and near rivers. Storm surge is the surge of sea water brought by typhoons, which can flood coastal areas and put lives in danger to coastal residents. Thunder and lightning are weather phenomena associated with typhoons and can cause fires and electric shock accidents.
Steps to prepare for the upcoming typhoon
In the face of the coming typhoon, we need to be prepared to ensure the safety of ourselves and our families. The following are some operation steps for your reference:
1. Pay attention to the weather forecast
Learn the latest news and predicted paths of typhoons in a timely manner so as to make reasonable decisions. The latest weather information can be obtained through TV, radio, mobile APP and other channels.
2. Fix indoor items
Secure indoor items that are easily affected by wind to prevent them from being damaged or becoming flying objects in typhoons. For example, move flower pots, vases, etc. to a safe location, and fix bookshelves, wardrobes, etc. to the wall.
3. Prepare emergency supplies
Prepare enough emergency supplies such as food, drinking water, medicine, emergency lights, flashlights, spare batteries, etc. in case of emergency. At the same time, check whether the fire extinguishers, first aid kits and other equipment in the home are in good condition, and make sure you know how to use them correctly.
4. Do a good job in protecting residential buildings
For residents living in residential buildings, they must ensure that the windows are well sealed and can use tape or wooden boards to reinforce the windows. If you live in a high-rise building, be careful to avoid going near windows to prevent injuries from glass shards.
5. Evacuation and risk avoidance
If the area is officially issued an evacuation notice, you should follow the instructions to evacuate to a safe area in a timely manner. If evacuation is not possible, choose a sturdy building to avoid exposure to wind and rain outdoors.
End
After the Wenzhou typhoon forecast was released, citizens took action one after another and made preparations. Everyone worked hard to secure items at home that were easily affected by wind, prepared enough emergency supplies, and did a good job in protecting residential buildings. When the typhoon approaches, everyone evacuates to safe areas or chooses strong buildings to take shelter.
The Wenzhou Meteorological Observatory reminds everyone that although typhoons are powerful, as long as we are well prepared, we can reduce the impact of disasters. I hope everyone can stay vigilant, follow official guidance, and ensure the safety of yourself and your family. I believe that through our joint efforts, Wenzhou City will be able to survive this typhoon and rebuild a beautiful home.
