Sand flood in Quang Binh

The flood of history has just passed a few days, the North Central people flooded themselves in the 2nd flood. Yet, not yet, particularly in Quang Binh there is another type of flood only in places along the sand hills, that is flood sand.

The sand is filled with garden soil.

The second flood in Quang Binh is not as aggressive as the last time but it has hidden risks. We still say rain and wind in the sea and sea - yes, rain forest brings flooding down, sea breeze is the storm from the sea to the mainland.

This flood saw that rule broken. Rain forest has also had more sea rain. A downpour never saw the night of October 17 in Quang Binh coastal sand hill area.

People in Ha Thiep village, Vo Ninh commune, Quang Ninh district are located in the area adjacent to the sand hill. It has a relatively high terrain, so it is hardly flooded like other normal areas.

Late in the night, when I slept, there was no one else shouting at the flood water, then the village attacked the alarm. The whole village of Ha Thiep woke up and ran, the first move was to see where the floodwaters flowed.

Everyone is heading west where water comes from the source, but no, the water from the back of the east flows backwards. People fall back on their feet and don't understand why!

It turned out that water from the sand hill rushed back. An unprecedented flood of sand in the darkness filled Ha Thiep village.

Water brings sand over the garden, fish ponds, roads including houses. Surprisingly people have to work together to find all available materials to try to block the flow of sand. .

Thanks to the timely efforts, damage has been minimized. Although many households have fish ponds washed away by water, gardens, paths, houses are filled with sand.

Different from flooding, the mud must be removed, the sand must take a lot of effort to transfer the amount of white sand.

Continually through two floods, there were more sand exercises. The risk of sand flooding still hangs on top of residential areas along sand dunes.

It is necessary to have a plan to prevent and prevent in a timely manner the critical places such as water courses, water tanks near residential areas by reinforcing the embankment dyke against sand erosion.
