    Forget it, of course. Natural disasters refer to natural disasters. Natural variations on the earth, including those induced by human activities, occur all the time, and when such variations bring harm to human society, they constitute natural disasters.

    Because it has brought varying degrees of damage to human production and life, including the relationship between man and nature through the medium of labor, as well as the relationship between people related to it. Disasters are all negative or destructive effects. Major sudden, natural disasters worldwide include:

    Drought, floods, typhoons, storm surges, frost damage, hailstorms, tsunamis, volcanoes, landslides, mudslides, forest fires, agricultural and forestry pests and diseases, etc.

    The process of natural disasters is long and short, slow and urgent. Some natural disasters, when the change of disaster-causing factors exceeds a certain intensity, will manifest as disaster behavior in a few days, hours or even minutes and seconds, such as volcanic eruptions, floods, hurricanes, storm surges, hail, etc., such disasters are called sudden natural disasters.

    In addition, there are some natural disasters that are in the case of the long-term development of disaster-causing factors, gradually appearing into disasters, such as land desertification, soil erosion, environmental deterioration, etc., such disasters usually take several years or more to develop, it is called slow-onset natural disasters, many natural disasters, especially after the occurrence of natural disasters with high grade and high intensity, often induce a series of other disasters to occur one after another, this phenomenon is called disaster chain. The earliest occurring disaster in the disaster chain is called a primary disaster; Disasters induced by primary disasters are called secondary disasters. After the occurrence of natural disasters, the harmonious conditions for human existence are disrupted, and a series of other disasters can be born, which are generally called derivative disasters.

    The process of disasters is often complex, and sometimes a disaster can be caused by several disasters, or a single disaster can cause several different disasters at the same time.

    Typhoons are considered natural disasters, and manpower is uncontrollable.

    However, in the face of typhoons, human beings can do something to reduce secondary disasters.

    When a typhoon comes, doesn't the typhoon go to the road? There are tall trees on both sides of the road, and the dangers can be described as one after the other. The motorcyclist was crushed by a tree with his car, and it was distressing to look at it.

    There is also one who actually single-handedly supported the car that was about to be blown over by the typhoon, and as a result, there will never be a second time. These can be avoided if traffic is controlled beforehand. What's more, at a construction site, the multi-story gantry crane rotated like a madman in the wind, which was extremely terrifying.

    I don't know if it will be safe in the end, but if it collapses, the consequences will be unimaginable. This can also be avoided, but no one has done it beforehand. Typhoons are natural disasters, and they are powerful.

    This time, Typhoon Hato arrived in Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Hong Kong and other places, and the wind and rain brought uprooting trees. Huizhou, Guangdong Province has a force 14 wind, and the waves are set off, flooding trees and villages, which is a natural disaster. When a typhoon is coming, you should avoid going out, suspend work, boats, and classes.

    Do not stay under the house under the tree to prevent accidents.

    Typhoons are natural disasters and are also considered natural disasters.

    A typhoon is a low-pressure atmospheric vortex originating from the tropical ocean, which is divided into four categories according to the magnitude of the wind near its center: wind force 6 and 7 are tropical depressions, wind force 8 and 9 are tropical storms, 10 and 11 are severe tropical storms, and wind force 12 and above are typhoons. In the tropical western Pacific Ocean, 30 typhoons are generated every year (accounting for 38% of the world) 7 August is the peak period of typhoon activity, after the formation of the tropical ocean, it moves to the northwest, and an average of 7 typhoons make landfall on the coast of China every year.

    Typhoons bring strong winds, torrential rain (80% of the highest rainfall records in 15 coastal provinces in China are caused by typhoons), huge waves and tidal disasters, which seriously threaten the safety of people's lives and property. Many floods are caused by the landfall of typhoons, slowing down and stagnation of deep inland movements, and heavy rains brought by the persistence of low pressure. You say it's a natural disaster, but it's a natural disaster?!

    Hahahaha! How did this question come up! What about Typhoon Hato?

    Artificially made?! Scientists have estimated that a moderately strong typhoon could release as much energy as hundreds of hydrogen bombs, or 1 billion tons of yellow explosives.

    Typhoons are meteorological disasters that are usually caused by these three aspects. 1. Wind. The winds brought by typhoons can damage or even destroy buildings, bridges, and vehicles on land.

    2. Heavy rain. Floods caused by heavy rains are the most dangerous disasters because they are ferocious and destructive. 3. Storm surge.

    These disasters can easily induce urban waterlogging, house collapse, flash floods, mudslides, and so on.

    Typhoons are natural disasters. Natural disasters refer to natural phenomena that bring harm to human survival or damage the living environment of human beings, including drought, high temperature, low temperature, cold wave, flood, waterlogging, flash flood, typhoon, tornado, flame tornado, hail, hail, frost, heavy rain, blizzard, freezing rain, fog, strong wind, icing, haze, haze, floating dust, blowing sand, sandstorm, thunderstorm, thunderstorm, ball lightning and other meteorological disasters.

    Typhoons are a type of tropical cyclone. A tropical cyclone is a low-pressure vortex that occurs over the tropical or subtropical oceans and is a powerful and deep "tropical weather system". China divides tropical cyclones in the South China Sea and the Northwest Pacific into six categories according to the magnitude of the maximum average wind force (wind speed) near the center of the bottom layer, of which the wind force near the center is 12 or above, collectively referred to as typhoons.

    What to do in case of typhoon weather.

    1. Close doors and windows, and properly place outdoor items that are susceptible to typhoon winds. For example, it is better to park the car in the garage, of course, it is better to insure the car in advance.

    2. Residents should not go out at will, and ensure that the elderly and children stay at home.

    3. Kindergarten children and school students should be placed in the classroom and outdoor activities should be suspended.

    4. Outdoor workers should stop work and should immediately take shelter indoors.

    5. Outdoor personnel should not enter isolated sheds, sentry boxes and other buildings, or take shelter from typhoons under chimneys, telephone poles or large trees in high-rise buildings, and try to find a solid place to take shelter, especially in the event of thunder and lightning.

    6. While preparing for typhoons, we should also prepare for lightning protection.

If there is no thunder, it means that there will be no typhoon, and there will be a surround lightning before the typhoon comes, and there will be no thunder. If the cloud is waving to the right, it means that the wind is stronger and there will be heavy rain. Wave to the left, it means that the typhoon is over, you know---
