Yellow Alert
Rainfall is already approaching the debris flow and massive landslide alert values, and according to the Central Weather Administration's precipitation forecast, there is still a chance of continuous heavy rain in the future. It is recommended to start preparing your personal belongings and prepare for evacuation!
Red Alert
Rainfall is significant and has reached the debris flow and massive landslide alert values. It is recommended to immediately take necessary evacuation measures and proceed to a safe shelter.
Pay Attention to Evacuation Routes During Floods
When evacuating and encountering flooded roads, use a long stick to check the safety underfoot to avoid falling into ditches or potholes. If the water depth exceeds 50cm, even adults may lose their footing and be swept away by the flood. You should move away quickly.
