Flood warnings in rivers and streams can cause flash floods, landslides, flooding in riverside and low-lying areas, affecting agricultural production, aquaculture and many local residential areas. Rapidly rising floods pose a danger when traveling through tunnels, spillways, bridges, traffic pipes or areas that are deeply flooded, with fast-flowing water... Therefore, relevant levels, sectors and people need to continue to take proactive and timely response measures to minimize damage.
