    The fact that the capital area and other areas of South Korea have been hit by heavy rains will have such deadly rainstorms has a certain relationship with global climate change. Some countries experienced unprecedented extreme heat this summer, while others experienced flooding. The heavy rain in the capital area of South Korea was caused by the convergence of hot and cold air currents, coupled with abundant water vapor, which eventually caused an unprecedented heavy rainstorm.

    The heavy rain in the capital area of South Korea not only brought economic losses, but also caused a situation of people. According to the observation of the weather station, the rainfall in one hour reached millimeters, and the rainfall in three hours and six hours was as high as 259 millimeters and millimeters. These figures have reached a record high, and they have also brought unprecedented disasters to the Korean metropolitan area.

    Rainy weather is essential in our lives, and there are two factors that need to be in place. The first factor, the amount of water vapor in the clouds, reaches a certain amount; The second factor, the convergence of hot and cold air currents, causes the water vapor to condense into raindrops.

    The rain in the capital area of South Korea is the northeast cold vortex airflow, which meets the western Pacific subtropical high airflow. As a result, the water vapor carried by the Pacific subtropical air flow condenses into raindrops when it encounters cold air and falls on the Korean metropolitan area.

    South Korea is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the sea transportation is very convenient, which also brings abundant water vapor to the country. The strong intensity of the Northeast Cold Vortex and the strong subtropical high flow in the western Pacific Ocean are also stronger than in the same period of previous years.

    The cold air flow continues to let the warm, moist air flow steam, condense into raindrops. Heavy rainfall can be avoided in a short period of time, but if it lasts for a long time, it will be difficult to withstand with human strength.

    From this incident, we also see the terrible power of nature. We still have a long way to go to control the forces of nature, so it is best for us to respect nature and protect the environment now.

    It may be that extreme glacier melting, which leads to a large number of natural disasters, is a test of people and the reason for the heavy rainfall.

    It's a typhoon, and there's nothing you can do when you encounter a typhoon, so you have to take protective measures.

    This rainstorm process occurred under specific weather conditions. There is a significantly stronger northeast cold vortex in the northeast of China, and the vortex system constantly "throws out" cold air, causing it to continue to move southward and affect the Korean Peninsula. At the same time, the subtropical high in the western Pacific is stronger and more northerly than normal, which is conducive to the warm and humid monsoon to transport water vapor to the Korean Peninsula.

    When I saw some torrential rain and floods in Seoul, South Korea, it was really shocking, this heavy rain brought us more of a test of life, not only that our lives were in considerable danger, but also lost a lot of property. But in the face of the great war, we still try our best to ensure our lives and health, and our lives are safe, and we will still have more opportunities to create more wealth after not being afraid of running out of firewood to burn us.

In some areas, the ROK military was also mobilized to participate in the disaster relief. South Korea's top leaders, including Moon Jae-in and Prime Minister Ding Se-kyun, also went to the local disaster area to express condolences, followed by investigation.

    For those homeless victims, the Korean local government has placed them in public shelters such as gymnasiums. The damaged roads and communication facilities are also being repaired, but there is still a wide range of precipitation, and the progress of the repair of the relevant facilities has been delayed, and the emergency repair rate is not high.

    Introduction: If there is a sudden thunderstorm, what are some places you must not visit? I think that places like near the foot of the mountain and the riverside should not be approached.

    Do not go near any electrical equipment and billboards, etc., which may pose a threat to your life. And most importantly, during a thunderstorm, be sure not to take shelter under a tree. There is a good chance that this will put you in great danger.

    Recently, a Chinese citizen in South Korea was suddenly hit by a thunderstorm. Unfortunately, he died. According to relevant reports, it was because the dormitory where the citizen was buried by a mudslide that the worker was unfortunately killed.

    Therefore, you must not be careless during a thunderstorm, and do not think that the thunderstorm does not threaten your life. We must abandon this misconception, be cautious about thunderstorms, and provide peace of mind for the safety of our own lives. <>

    During thunderstorms, be sure to stay away from power equipment or billboards. When it rains, there will be water on the road, and this rainwater is likely to come into contact with electrical equipment, which may cause electrical equipment to leak electricity, or short circuit the power lines into the water. Once someone comes into contact with these things, then, the person's personal safety is threatened.

    Billboards are easy to fall during thunderstorms due to strong winds and lightning, so be sure to stay away from places with billboards. <>

    Another point, and very important, is that during thunderstorms, you must stay away from the riverside and away from the foot of the mountain. There is a high probability that the water level will rise sharply due to the rain on the riverside, and there is a high probability that flash floods will break out in the mountain streams. If you are close to the river, there is a high risk that it will be swept away by floodwaters, and it will be dangerous.

    At the foot of the mountain, due to the continuous rainfall, the soil moisture content in the mountainous area will be very saturated, and the soil is prone to loosening, resulting in landslides, landslides and other secondary disasters, which are the first to threaten.

    Manhole covers, sewers, electrical equipment, riverside, seaside, billboards, foot of the mountain, under bridges, these are all very dangerous places and must not be visited.

    Don't go to places below ground level, such as underground parking lots, subways, etc., if the rainstorm lasts for a long time, it is easy to get trapped in it and not be able to get out. It is not possible to go to places such as river embankments, as heavy rains can easily cause reservoir dams to be washed away.

    When the rainstorm comes, we must avoid going to some remote areas in the wild, and also avoid going to the place where the voltage or high-voltage line is, and avoid staying in some manhole covers or lakes such as the sea and the river, which is easy to have a very serious impact on your body and may also lead to harm.

    South Korea has suffered the heaviest rainstorm on record, which has already killed 11 people, and the torrential rain has caused the following losses and impacts in South Korea:

    Much of the infrastructure in central South Korea has been destroyed. Heavy rainfall has caused more than 250 mm of precipitation in the central region of South Korea, many residential areas have been submerged in floods, most of the lines have failed, there are some areas of power problems have not been supplied for 4 consecutive days, and many signal base stations in the city center have been destroyed, local residents' mobile phones are basically no signal, even if there is a signal, the speed of sending information to the outside world is very slow, it takes about ten seconds to half a minute. There are also residential buildings on the lower floors, completely submerged in the floodwaters, and all kinds of furniture and appliances in the homes have been completely soaked, and it still takes a lot of money to improve and repair them after the rainstorm.

    There are also significant losses to the local economyOn the one hand, the economic loss is due to a lot of infrastructure, which needs to be improved and repaired by the local relevant departments out of their own pockets, and the other part of the economic loss is due to the fact that during the rescue of the rainstorm, all the rescue teams must be concentrated in the core area of these rainstorms, which will have a very serious impact on the entire economic development of the country, because the land area of South Korea is relatively small, and the central region has occupied about 1 3 of South Korea's area. Some experts said that the economic damage caused by the heavy rain may take months to six months before South Korea can recover, so the impact is still relatively large.

    Many factories in the area have been destroyed by the torrential rains. After the destruction of residential areas and infrastructure, many enterprises and manufacturers and companies are also facing varying degrees of impact, factories in low terrain have been flooded by heavy rains, resulting in immeasurable economic losses, and some companies are unable to operate normally due to heavy rains, resulting in company bankruptcy.
