Defense Recommendations:
1. At present, it is the peak season of summer travel, and rainfall is easy to lead to low visibility, water accumulation on the road, slippery road surface, and at the same time, the meteorological risk of traffic traffic caused by strong convective weather such as short-term heavy precipitation, thunderstorms and strong winds is high, and it is necessary to pay attention to traffic safety when traveling.
2. Residents should close the doors and windows, avoid going out as much as possible, and stay in a safe place with lightning protection devices for temporary shelter; When pedestrians go out, do not linger near glass doors and windows, billboards, temporary structures, etc.
Severe convective weather is accompanied by thunder, lightning, hail and short-term strong winds, please pay attention to the weather warning information in time, and reduce going out when it rains. If you do need to travel, pack up this guide to commuting on a rainy day:
Commute by car
1
When driving in rainy weather, pay attention to tire hydroplaning
When driving in rainy weather, the most common and dangerous thing is the occurrence of tire hydroplaning. When the car is in this state, the steering wheel will be completely out of order, and even if the steering wheel is turned sharply from side to side, it will not be able to change the direction of driving at all.
This is because when the car is driving at high speed on a waterlogged road, the tires leave the ground and float completely on the water, causing idling and thus losing control.
In the event of hydroplaning, the driver should avoid applying emergency braking due to tension. The correct way is to control the speed of the car, do not slam on the brakes, should slowly lift the accelerator pedal, try to hold the steering wheel, and wait for the speed to drop, the tire hydroplaning phenomenon will naturally disappear.
Applying the brakes too hard causes the vehicle to roll over
In order to prevent potential safety hazards caused by tire hydroplaning, please be sure to slow down when driving in rainy weather, and drive carefully on highways.

Avoid outdoor charging
Although the charging pile has waterproof materials, its interface may be affected by rainwater infiltration, resulting in a short circuit. If it must be used, cover it with rain protection equipment to ensure safety.
Commute on foot
1
Pathfinder with a long pole
Avoid falling into sewers with missing manhole covers, or tripping over obstacles in standing water.

Keep away from danger zones
Avoid walking around power facilities such as power poles and transformers.
In addition, special care should be taken to avoid the use of courier lockers. Due to the power supply of the outdoor express cabinet, there may be a potential risk of electric shock.
