Orange geological disaster meteorological risk warning
The Ministry of Natural Resources and the China Meteorological Administration jointly issued an orange geological disaster meteorological risk warning at 18:00 on June 21: It is expected that from 20:00 on June 21 to 20:00 on June 22, the meteorological risk of geological disasters is relatively high (yellow warning) in some areas such as southwestern Anhui, northwestern Jiangxi, eastern Hubei, northwestern Hunan, northwestern Guangxi, southern Chongqing, eastern Guizhou, western Yunnan, southeastern Tibet, and northwestern Xinjiang. Among them, the meteorological risk of local geological disasters in northwest Hunan is high (orange warning). Governments at all levels and relevant departments shall carry out geological disaster prevention work in accordance with emergency plans. The public is requested to pay attention to geological disaster and meteorological risk warning information in a timely manner and be cautious when traveling to geological disaster warning areas. High-risk hidden danger spots and threatened persons in risk areas in the orange warning area should immediately evacuate to nearby safety shelters according to the arrangements of the local disaster prevention department. People on slopes, cliffs, ditches and water should evacuate to nearby safety shelters in time according to the evacuation signal; people in yellow warning areas should pay attention to changes in early warning information at any time, pay attention to nearby warning signs, and avoid staying in high-risk areas such as ravines, slopes, and cliffs (ridges).
