👉🏻EXERCISE 實戰演練
Our region is currently under the influence of a severe weather system, which is causing torrential rain with the potential to cause flash flooding and safety concerns. Heavy rainfall has been persistent, with rainfall rates exceeding 46mm per hour in some areas. This intense downpour has saturated the ground, overwhelmed drainage systems, and swollen rivers and creeks. Flash flooding is a significant threat, especially in low-lying areas and regions prone to flooding. Rapidly rising waters can pose immediate dangers to life and property. Residents are urged to stay alert, follow evacuation orders if issued, and avoid driving or walking through flooded areas.
