The Shanxi Provincial Department of Land and Resources and the Shanxi Provincial Meteorological Bureau issued a geological disaster meteorological risk trend forecast on the 3rd. It is expected that in the next 24 hours, parts of areas such as Linfen City and Lüliang City will have a Level 2 (orange) geological disaster meteorological risk warning.
It is understood that parts of areas such as Changzhi City, Jincheng City, Jinzhong City, Linfen City, and Lüliang City will have a Level 3 (yellow) geological disaster meteorological risk warning.
According to local meteorological experts, the issued Level 2 geological disaster meteorological risk warning is an orange signal, indicating high risk. People should suspend outdoor operations near potential geological disaster sites, strengthen inspections around the clock, have relevant unit duty command personnel on standby to prepare emergency measures, organize rescue teams, take temporary avoidance measures if any abnormal conditions are detected, and evacuate threatened residents. At the same time, closely monitor the geological disaster meteorological risk warnings.
When the geological disaster meteorological risk warning level is 3, with a yellow alert signal, the risk is relatively high. People should carry out inspection and investigation work at potential geological disaster sites, especially strengthening patrols of artificial slopes in front of and behind houses. Government departments should remind residents, factories, mines, schools, enterprises, and institutions near potential hazard sites to closely monitor the geological disaster meteorological risk warnings.
At the time of this report by a China News Service reporter, it was also learned that the Shanxi Provincial Meteorological Observatory had just issued a blue rainstorm warning signal at 18:10, covering the warning areas of Lüliang, Linfen, Jinzhong, and Changzhi.
According to forecasts from local meteorological departments, affected by the combined influence of cold and warm air, it is expected that rainfall in the warning areas will reach 50 millimeters or more within 12 hours.
