On the evening of May 5, affected by strong convective weather, torrential rain fell sharply in many parts of Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, accompanied by lightning and short-term strong gusts.
Trees along Xuanwei Avenue in Jinghong City were broken by strong winds, blocking traffic for nearly 2 kilometers.
Unclear vision due to heavy rainfall can easily lead to traffic accidents.
After discovering the danger, 25 officers and soldiers of the Xishuangbanna Forest Fire Brigade quickly dispatched equipment and traffic command equipment. They commanded traffic along the road and cleared fallen logs in the rain. The road was restored to traffic in only 10 minutes, effectively avoiding the danger.
