Affected by this, parts of southwestern Guangdong, southern Guangxi, northern Hainan Island and other places will experience heavy rainstorms, and local torrential rains. The above-mentioned areas may be accompanied by strong convective weather such as thunderstorms and strong winds.

The above-mentioned western Guangdong region will experience heavy rainstorms and local extremely heavy rainstorms, and attention should be paid to preventing heavy rainfall and the secondary disasters such as urban and rural waterlogging, low-lying flooding and landslides caused by it .

In typhoon weather, how to prevent wind risks?

When a typhoon comes, most people will stay at home quietly. For some people who stay at work or go out for work for various reasons, they should pay more attention to safety during typhoon days.

(1) Build a strong "protection network" at home

Check if the doors and windows are secure, close the windows in time, remove hanging objects, put away things on the balcony, and reinforce outdoor objects that are easily blown. Check if the circuits, gas and other facilities are safe. Prepare flashlights, radios, food, drinking water and common medicines in case of emergency. If there are patients at home, also prepare necessary medicines.

(2) Do not stay in dangerous areas

When a typhoon hits, do not stay near glass doors and windows, shabby huts, temporary sheds, or under tall buildings such as billboards and neon lights. In addition, try to avoid walking on embankments and bridges near rivers, lakes, and seas to avoid being blown down by the wind or falling into the water.

(3) How to avoid typhoons at sea?

When a ship encounters a typhoon, it usually takes evasive sailing to avoid being caught in the center of the typhoon or the storm area outside the center. The ship can change its course and speed in a timely manner according to the dynamics and intensity of the typhoon, so that the ship can keep a certain distance from the center of the typhoon and be outside the strong wind range of the wind force level that the ship can withstand, and take appropriate sailing methods to get away from the center of the typhoon as soon as possible.

After a typhoon passes, it does not mean that the danger is completely eliminated. At this time, many people are careless and cause danger. In addition, food safety after the disaster cannot be ignored.
