Essay about typhoon passing through

Yesterday was Sunday, September 16, 2018. Typhoon Mangkhut arrived as promised.

In Shenzhen for so many years, typhoons have been a normal occurrence, occurring several times every year, but they are not as serious as this time.

When I woke up in the morning, it was still raining outside the window, and it was just light rain. I'm still wondering if this typhoon went astray again. After 12 noon, my son and I sat at the window and ate while joking about "mangosteen" and saying that housing prices in Shenzhen were too high and typhoons could not afford it. But after 13 o'clock in the afternoon, I gradually felt that the wind and rain had intensified, and the windows could no longer be opened. It slowly turned into a strong wind, with rain and fog blowing all over the sky white, and the rain became horizontal, like bursts of white smoke. .

I clearly felt that this typhoon was different, it was more violent. The scene outside the window is no longer worthy of our ridicule. The sight of the raging wind made me a little scared, thinking that if something flew over at this time and hit the window, it would be the end.

Looking at the few cars and the sparse pedestrians on the street, I felt very worried for them. At this time, if it is not for extremely necessary matters, you should go home and escape. Watching two girls moving on the road holding a pink and a black umbrella, I sighed that the quality of these umbrellas was good.

Because I had taken preventive measures in advance and prepared food in advance, I was also fortunate to have wisely made the balcony enclosed at the beginning of the year, which reduced the impact of the typhoon on my family, and my son also I am not afraid, but I am happy because I don’t have to go back to grandma’s house because of the typhoon, and I don’t have to go to school on Monday. Children are children after all. Looking out of the window, the strong wind was tearing at the trees, and the trees on the street were swaying directionlessly, as if they would break at any time. Such winds continued into the evening, and various service providers also sent messages one after another, temporarily suspending services due to the impact of the typhoon. I learned about the outside world through my mobile phone: in the video, a strong wind shattered all the windows of a building in Hong Kong, and the curtains danced wildly in the wind; netizens posted posts and posted the word "rice" on the doors and windows; the safety facilities at home were not Qualified residents went to nearby shelters one after another...

After dinner, I visually checked that the wind had subsided a bit. I was about to send my son back to my grandma's house. When we stood at the gate, we immediately backed down. , the wind was still very strong, and the umbrella was instantly overturned. We immediately headed back home, and my son was happy to be able to spend one more night with me.

At night, listening to the whistling outside the window, I actually fell asleep. I got up several times to check whether the window was closed tightly.

After being woken up by the alarm clock at 6:30 in the morning, I heard that it was quiet outside, the rain had stopped, and the wind had stopped. I woke up the little guy and prepared to take him back to grandma's house. There were still very few cars on the road. Didi's express trains and taxis were not available. We had no choice but to take the bus and walk some distance. After sending my son back, on the way home, I discovered that the area was even more destroyed. Many big trees had been uprooted and fell on their sides on the road. The ground was covered with broken branches and leaves, and the air was filled with the smell of broken branches. The green smell, you can feel the breath of life when you close your eyes, but this is the smell after life is injured. There were three private cars on the roadside that were crushed by trees and their roofs collapsed. They were probably useless. Pedestrians raised their mobile phones to take pictures of this scene. It is estimated that today’s circle of friends are all showing off the tragic aftermath of the disaster. The fallen leaves all over the ground add to the autumn mood, and the trees that still stand upright have become bare, and this is already a lucky person.

After arriving at the company, everyone lamented the intensity of this typhoon. Various websites are vying to report on the scene after the disaster. Looking at the news report: The typhoon caused the death of 4 people, I felt sad in my heart, how insignificant people are in the face of disaster. Three of the four people were hit by trees and one was hit by a building. This reminds me of the people who walked with umbrellas during the typhoon yesterday, and the person reported yesterday who drove his family to the beach to watch the typhoon! What made them put life and death at risk? Or did they lack awe for nature! In my opinion, life is the most important, no matter how urgent things are, no matter how great the curiosity is, they should be ranked at the back. Four people and four families ended like this, and their lives passed away in just a moment.

Perhaps after experiencing misfortune, you will cherish your happy life more. Today, I feel that the sky is particularly beautiful and the air is particularly fresh. I am happy that everything is back to normal, but my heart is full of mixed feelings. I hope we will be in the future Every day, we can face life with the mentality of surviving a disaster, not neglecting the happiness we should have, not despising the weight of life, and facing nature with a heart of awe. Although we do not need to worship, we still Don't act recklessly. May the passing of life leave a warning to the living to take every day seriously and protect themselves and their families.
