It’s late spring now – the grass is growing and birds are singing, creating a beautiful spring atmosphere. Besides that, those in the chemical industry must not forget the extreme convective weather conditions that are most common during this season, such as hailstorms. Let’s all discuss what measures can be taken to prevent damage caused by hailstorms. ———————– Spring has arrived! We welcome all our friends to actively participate in the activity titled 【Spring Has Arrived in Haichuan Chemical Industry】, where you can share pictures of the beautiful scenery from different places. We’re looking forward to your contributions!
I remember losing my umbrella on the subway last year; I kept wanting to buy a new one but never did. Then it started raining and hailing, and that ruined everything
I’m fine; I’ve never encountered the situation you mentioned. It’s not that rainy days are common here
During hailstorms, the sector most affected is agriculture, as the crops are completely damaged
Such severe convective weather is difficult to predict accurately; reducing outdoor activities is at least one option!
1. Hail is a type of severe weather that is relatively difficult to predict. Weather stations use a variety of real-time meteorological data, such as weather radar, meteorological satellites, and weather maps, to track hail storms and make forecasts based on this information. There are also many forecasting traditions among the people, such as \"Hail is common in dry years,\" \"Strong winds occur in spring while hail is common in summer,\" and \"When dark clouds take on a pagoda shape with red clouds at the bottom, hail is about to appear.\" In summary, there are six methods of prediction: (1) Sensing cold and heat ； (2) Determining the wind direction: “No east wind means no high tide; no south wind means no hail.”” ； (3) Observe the cloud color ； (4) Listening to the thunder ； (5) Recognizing lightning ； (6) Observe objects. 2. Protection against hail: (1) Avoiding hail ； (2) Hail prevention ； (3) Hail resistance ； (4) Hail suppression: Avoiding hail is something that ordinary people can do, while the latter three tasks require specialized departments and personnel. Nowadays, thanks to technological advancements, artificial hail suppression has achieved good results. 3. How to deal with hail: (1) Upon learning of weather forecasts regarding hail, people, animals, and items outside should be moved to a safe place. (2) Try not to go outside when hail is coming; if it’s necessary to go out, be sure to protect your head and face. (3) If you are outdoors when hail arrives, you should immediately find a place to take shelter, preferably a sturdy building. (4) If you are driving a car or are inside it, stop the vehicle immediately in a safe place; under no circumstances should you proceed recklessly...
It’s raining every day; we’re going to get mold. :Q
During hailstorms, the sector most affected is agriculture, as the crops are completely damaged; other industries are affected to a lesser extent.
There are natural disasters and man-made disasters; sometimes, natural disasters are difficult to resist. It’s important to take proactive measures – by knowing in advance through weather forecasts about severe hailstorms, inspections can be postponed and vehicles can be taken indoors. After last summer, additional protective measures were installed on some mechanical equipment.
Protection of crops is the main focus; other aspects are considered to have little impact.
