The debris flow occurs in a large area and in large flows
Losses can often be caused in a split second
Facing mudslides
How do I evacuate safely?
What should I pay attention to when evacuating?
Today
Let's learn together
These phenomena may be a precursor to mudslides
The river suddenly stops flowing or the water potential suddenly increases, and there is a lot of firewood, grass and branches;
In the deep valley there was a sound like the roar of a train or muffled thunder;
The depths of the ravine suddenly become dark, and there is a slight sensation of vibration, etc.
If you encounter the above phenomenon
Please evacuate immediately to a safe place
How to evacuate the safest
If you are indoors at the time of the landslide, be sure to find a way to get out of the house and find a safe place to evacuate quickly.
Choose the direction that is perpendicular to the debris flow, climb the slopes on both sides, climb as high as possible, run as fast as possible, and do not run in the direction of the debris flow.
It is necessary to immediately unload heavy travel equipment and luggage, etc., and choose a safe route to escape, but do not discard communication tools so that you can contact the outside world for help.
These places can't be visited
Do not take shelter under steep hillsides or climb on trees, but choose a flat and safe high ground to avoid mudslides collapsing and knocking down hillsides and trees and causing personal injury.
Special reminder
In the wild, in the event of heavy rain, quickly move to safe high ground, and do not take shelter or stay under low-lying valley floors or steep mountain slopes.
