Snowstorms & Extreme Cold

Winter storms cause a car accident, hypothermia, frostbite, carbon monoxide poisoning, and risk of heart disease due to overwork. Winter storms and snowstorms can result in extreme cold, cold rain, snow, ice and wind. Winter storms:

Learn about the danger of winter storm in your area. Extreme weather in winter may leave the community for a long time without public facilities or other services.

Prepare your home to prevent insulation, caulking and weather resistance. Learn how to prevent pipe freezing. Installation and testing of battery-backed smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detector

Pay attention to weather forecasts and freezing weather and winter storm warnings. Please register your community warning system. The emergency alert system (EAS) and the US marine aeronautical (NOAA) weather station also provide emergency alerts

If you need to stay home for several days without power supply, collect items. Remember the specific needs of everyone, including medicine. Do not forget the needs of pets. Extra battery for radio and flashlight

Make an emergency power supply kit for your car. Jumper cables, sand, flashlight, warm clothes, blankets, mineral water, scratch-resistant snacks are included. Keep the tank full

Limit time to the outside. If you need to go out, please wear a multilayered warm clothing. Pay attention to frostbite and signs of hypothermia

Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. Use a generator and grill outdoors away from the window. Do not warm the house with a gas stove or oven

Solution: Please go to a warm room. Soak in lukewarm water. Heat at body temperature. Do not use massage or heating pad

Solution: Please go to a warm room. Heat the center of the body - chest, neck, head, groin area. Please wrap with a warm blanket in dry condition including head and neck.

Every year in the past decade, the world has witnessed new extremes of heat and cold, hurricane, heavy rain and snowstorm. The polar ice caps are melting at astonishing speeds and the consequences that the main ocean currents may change due to sea level rise have influenced eschatological speculation on newspapers, radio and television It was. Instead of talking about global warming that may have attractive appeal in certain parts of the British Isles, we should use more appropriate terms of global climate turmoil. We use fossil energy irresponsibly and our pollution technology and consumption habits are beginning to threaten the dynamic balance of the tweaked life support system on Earth. Gaia is sick! She has a fever, this is our fault!

Due to climate change, a large snowstorm is occurring. During the past century, two-thirds of the eastern part of the country is seeing a sharp increase in the frequency of extreme snowfall. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, there were several extreme blizzards in the area in the late 20th century. Above the average sea surface temperature, these extreme storms exacerbate these extreme storms. Extra heat will evaporate more water and increase the ammunition amount of the snowstorm.

Paradoxically, climate change can also cause more extreme snowstorms. According to the National Environment Information Center, the extreme blizzard of eastern United States doubled from the beginning of the 20th century. Likewise, as seawater temperature rises, water may evaporate into the atmosphere. This moisture brought storm to the mainland of the United States. Some of the most direct effects of global warming are under the waves. The sea acts as a sink and absorbs dissolved carbon dioxide. This is not bad for the atmosphere, but it is bad for marine ecosystems. When carbon dioxide reacts with seawater, pH decreases. This is known as ocean acidification. As acidity rises, calcium carbonate shells and bones that many marine organisms depend on are swallowed. According to NOAA, these include clams, arthropods and corals.
