Weather bureau releases educational videos

Two videos educating the general public about precautionary measures to be taken for typhoons or storm surge conditions have been posted on the Meteorological and Geophysics Bureau website.
The videos provide information to viewers in a lively manner. They aim to educate people about the knowledge that they should possess in case they are faced with either or both extreme weather conditions.
In the video about storm surge conditions, a family of three prepare themselves against the surge with helmets, goggles, raincoats and rain boots.
Afterwards, a professional-looking middle-aged man turns down their measures, saying that it is an exaggerated danger. The man instructs them to avoid staying in low-lying areas and basements.
In the typhoon video, the bureau reminds viewers to start preparing when any typhoon signal is hoisted. They should do so in case the typhoon changes its path or intensifies suddenly.
Apart from the website of the weather forecaster, both videos are also played onboard public buses. AL
