In the past two days, affected by strong cold air, rare and sustained winds swept across North China, blowing people in Beijing and other cities, making people mistake for a typhoon passing through. However, the strong winds did not stop here, but headed straight for South China, dispelling the sultry heat from a while ago.

As a result, on this cool and pleasant weekend, Nanning, Guangxi held a coffee festival in an outdoor square to attract local citizens to go and play. Many young people held up high-value drinks made in their hands and took photos with friends. Check-in, the event scene was so lively.

However, yesterday afternoon, dark clouds fell and darkness fell for one second. Sudden gusts of strong wind broke into the event venue unceremoniously, turning the scene upside down. Judging from the videos and pictures posted online, the strong wind blows the promotional posters around the square. Some stall signs and decorations hanging on the roof of the shed are blown away by the wind. If you don't pay attention to the packaging cups placed on the table, you will be "followed" by the wind.

The most unexpected thing was that a row of stalls next to the road at the event site could not withstand the extreme wind of the raid. Tents were "uprooted" one by one, and even the shelves, storage boxes, etc. in the stalls were overturned. On the ground, the scene was a mess and terrible.

At the same time, Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, thousands of miles away, is also holding a large-scale coffee festival. At the event site where people gathered, strong winds overturned several of the tents. Some merchants reported that the signs, menus, etc. of their stalls disappeared without paying attention.

Fortunately, according to witnesses at the two events, although the evil wind was blown into a mess by the coffee festival site, the tents that collapsed and twisted did not hurt tourists and businesses. However, some of the stalls were beyond recognition under the raging wind and heavy rain. The stall owners who were unable to continue operating could only clean up the chaotic venue and transport away machinery and equipment while silently calculating the heavy losses caused to them by the sudden wind and rain.

In response, local netizens said that yesterday, meteorological observatories in Nanning and Ningbo had issued weather warnings before the strong winds came, reminding citizens to take precautions and not go out unless necessary. Holding large-scale activities in unobstructed outdoor venues should also be held in the event of a sudden change in the weather. Suspend until the weather changes.

However, the organizers did not change the event time according to actual conditions, insisted on holding the event as scheduled and had no targeted emergency plan. For example, the organizers used sandbags, ropes, etc. to fix tents before the strong wind crossed the border, and bluntly said,"The organizers are not ok. In this kind of windy weather, the meteorological station has issued a strong wind warning, and the organizers are not going to reschedule the event yet.""Does the organizers have no weather forecast? Didn't give everyone a safe environment to drink coffee! "," This is a bit dangerous."

In the eyes of many netizens, this windy day is extraordinary. With the meteorological department having given advance warning, for safety reasons, both the place and the event planner should stop outdoor activities. Even if the event continues, it should be held indoors with a safer environment instead of putting the merchants and tourists participating in the event at risk.
