What is heavy rain?

Heavy rain refers to rain with an hourly rainfall of more than 30 mm and less than 50 mm. This is an image of rain falling like an overturned bucket. Also, you can get wet even with an umbrella, and regarding half of the people sleeping inside a wooden house will notice the rain. Outside, roads become like rivers, and cars driving on highways are at risk of “hydroplaning,” a phenomenon in which a film of water forms between the tires and the road surface, making the brakes ineffective.

In areas where heavy rain is expected, be careful of landslides, flooding of low-lying areas, and rising river levels.
