Xinhuanet, Beijing, June 3rd (Reporter Du Yu): The General Administration of Safety Supervision issued a notice on the 3rd, calling for the prevention of secondary accidents caused by heavy rainfall, lightning, and geological disasters.

The notice said that from June 5th to 6th, Sichuan, southern Gansu, southern Shaanxi and other earthquake-stricken areas will have a moderate rain weather process, with a cumulative rainfall of 10-25 mm, and local areas of up to 30-50 mm, accompanied by Strong convective weather such as local thunderstorms and strong winds. The precipitation process will bring adverse impacts on disaster relief work. Special attention should be paid to measures such as lightning protection and wind protection.

In the next 3 days, there will be heavy rain or heavy rain in central and southern China, parts of Shandong, western and central Yunnan, and most of southern China, and may be accompanied by strong convective weather such as short-term thunderstorms and strong winds; Due to strong lightning activity, there is a greater possibility of lightning disasters.
