In this article we describe the efforts of local authorities to detect and treat casualties caused by a hurricane that struck the west coast of Norway January 1st, 1992 and prevent further injuries. Wind velocity exceeded 100 knots (117 mph), the strongest ever recorded in Norway. The damage to buildings, trees and power lines was so devastating that the Nordmøre area, with approximately 50,000 inhabitants, was left without electricity for five days. Altogether 56 casualties were reported by physicians and the local hospital (one death, caused by hypothermia and exhaustion, and six admissions to hospital) in the period 1-5 January. Nine old people suffered injuries by falling in the dark in their houses, and ten men were injured during repair work.
在本文中,我们描述了当地政府为发现并救治1992年1月1日袭击挪威西海岸的飓风所造成的伤亡人员以及防止进一步受伤所做出的努力。风速超过了100节(117英里/小时),这是挪威有记录以来最强的风速。建筑物、树木和电力线路受损极为严重,致使拥有约5万居民的北莫勒地区停电达五天之久。1月1日至5日期间,医生和当地医院共报告了56名伤亡人员(一人因体温过低和疲惫死亡,六人住院治疗)。九名老人在家中因黑暗中摔倒而受伤,十名男子在维修工作中受伤。
