02|Personal outdoor and urban and rural public areas to avoid danger
Look for solid heights
◆ The area above the 2nd floor of a sturdy multi-storey high-rise public building (above the water) is located in a high-rise plaza or above.
◆ Avoid taking refuge on bridges, especially bridges over river channels, as flooding in river channels may break bridges.
Avoid entering hazardous areas
◆ Avoid climbing river embankments and other flood control facilities, as super floods may break the embankment or overflow the embankment.
◆ Avoid entering underground buildings such as subways, underground culverts, street tunnels, underground civil air defense projects, and underground commercial streets.
◆ Avoid going near old buildings.
◆ Stay away from the hillside, excessive rainfall may cause secondary disasters such as mudslides.
◆ Do not stand under or beside trees, and do not go near billboards.
Reduce the use of transportation facilities
◆Avoid traveling by car. Under the heavy rain, the ground situation was completely obscured, and it was impossible to accurately judge the situation of water accumulation.
◆Leave public transportation as soon as possible. Heavy rains can disrupt public transportation, and subways that are out of service underground and buses in low-lying areas are dangerous.
◆ If leaving the vehicle, it is best to keep moving in a group.
Keep away from electrical facilities
◆ In the process of avoiding danger, you must stay away from power facilities, such as high-voltage lines, high-voltage towers, transformers, etc., and stay away from all items with power supply danger signs.
◆ Keep away from wires and rope-like items.
◆ When it is not possible to ensure that the body and hands are dry, do not touch live equipment such as sockets and switches.
◆ Avoid standing in the open air at a high place to avoid lightning strikes.
Personal Communications
◆ In case of distress outdoors, reduce the additional consumption of communication equipment, ensure that you can support the arrival of rescuers, and ensure that you still have the ability to contact relatives and friends after safety.
◆When leaving the vehicle, you can send your location and evacuation plan to your relatives and friends.
◆ If you are unable to leave due to the surrounding water conditions, you can immediately report your location, the number of people trapped, the surrounding water conditions, emergency communication methods, etc., to the police, and then stop using your mobile phone and wait for rescue.
03|Self-help at home
◆ Personnel on the lower floors should immediately prepare for relocation, and prepare necessary supplies for the elderly, children and the sick and infirm in advance.
◆ People who need to use ventilators and oxygen cylinders need to relocate their life-sustaining equipment in time to ensure that they can survive under the condition of normal power supply. Inflate the spare oxygen bag in a timely manner to ensure an emergency oxygen supply is available even after a power outage.
◆ Disconnect the power supply at home to avoid short circuit of equipment and wires caused by water entering the home, resulting in electrical fire. Turn off the gas switches at all levels to avoid gas leakage.
◆ Carry mobile phones, charging cables, and power banks with you to ensure communication capabilities.
◆If you have swimming rings, inflatable boats, inflatable beds and other items at home, you can bring them with you. You can carry fruit knives, scissors, lighters, and external disinfectants such as band-aids and antibiotics.

Don't do it!

Why should I inspect my gas appliances?
◆ During the rainstorm, it is most important to avoid closing doors and windows. You can close doors and windows that are prone to rainwater, but make sure that when you use gas, the doors and windows that are not affected by rain are kept open, and that there is fresh air when the gas is burning. Please remember: check the ventilation before using the gas, take care of the gas when using it, and use the gas shut-off valve.
◆ In case of flood outage, remember to close the main valve. If the gas valve does not catch fire after opening the gas valve, please close the gas main valve immediately, check whether the gas company has issued a gas shutdown notice, or call the gas customer service number for consultation.
◆ Water in the house, "two passes and one surround". If you need to move items in the event of heavy rain and waterlogging at home, remember to turn off the electric switch and gas valve first to prevent electric shock and gas leakage. At the same time, the low-lying doorway that is easy to enter the water is fenced and protected.
◆ If you are outdoors, please stay away from gas appliances. If you are outdoors during a rainstorm, stay away from gas appliances. If you need to carry out emergency construction work such as rescue, excavation construction, etc., contact the gas company in advance to ensure the safety of the underground pipeline.
In case of heavy rain
Please stay safe
