Chako: Really? How can we protect ourselves?
Log: First of all, it’s important to evacuate to a safe place as soon as possible. Moving to the second floor of your house or to a higher location is also effective.

Admin’s Note

This news really made me feel the terrifying reality of natural disasters once again. In particular, the heavy rains caused by the autumn rain front are difficult to predict and require caution. From the conversation between Chako and Log, specific actions to protect oneself were clearly outlined, highlighting the importance of evacuation. The advice to stay away from rivers and irrigation channels is definitely something we should keep in mind in our daily lives. As we head into this season, I want to remain vigilant and not let my guard down when it comes to the weather.
