Disasters, accidents and natural disasters occur on earth every year. And in life you have to be ready for any situation. Unfortunately, most people do not have the necessary skills and knowledge to survive in extreme conditions. Anyone, even in their own home, can face a natural disaster such as a storm.
Instructions
Step 1
A storm is a heavy rainstorm accompanied by a squally wind that can cause flooding, flooding or mudflows. If your dwelling is located near water bodies, consider building a drainage well in the basement, connected to the sewer, or a well with a deep bottom. Indeed, in case of a flood, basements, underground floors, garages can be flooded.
Step 2
Prepare sandbags in advance. Block the access of water to the underground floors with bags if the downpour lasts more than 30-60 minutes.
Step 3
Disconnect all electrical appliances in your home to avoid the risk of electric shock. After all, a storm can be preceded by strong electrical discharges of lightning.
Step 4
Close all doors and windows in the house. The air flow conducts electricity well.
Step 5
Do not hold metal objects in your hands, metal is a good conductor of electricity. Stay away from windows and doors.
Step 6
Staying in the middle of the room during a storm is the safest place in the house.
Step 7
Never run outdoors during a disaster. Stop the car.
Step 8
Avoid heavy rainfall under trees, especially under larch and oak trees. Most often, lightning strikes them.
Step 9
Move to low ground from high ground.
Step 10
Stay as far away from pipes, steelwork, power lines and water surfaces as possible.
Step 11
The main thing in an extreme situation is to stay calm, not to lose control over yourself and try to do everything possible to help yourself and those around you.
