Are storms dangerous?

While the thunder itself is not usually dangerous, with the exception of extremely rare circumstances, thunderstorms are because they are associated with meteorological phenomena such as lightning, which can be very dangerous. If you observe the approaching storm, try to cover inside and refrain from using a phone or other electrical devices while avoiding windows. If you are caught outside during the storm, cluster so low to the ground and avoid lonely trees or metal that can attract lightning. If someone is hit by lighting during a thunderstorm, get medical attention as soon as possible. The first is lightning that accompanies most of the storms. Lightning is an electrical discharge that occurs due to the separation of positive and negative particles that occur in many storm systems because the clouds are thrown in the weather. If it is hit by a flash, one can die or the robes injured and lightning will also damage houses and other property. While the death or serious injuries in the lightning strike are rare, they become.

storms are also associated with heavy rain, wind and hail. The main cause of death -related death is in fact the lightning flood that occurs when a large amount of rain falls in a very short period of time. Some areas are more susceptible to lightning floods than others, but if you are caught in a storm, beware of drain and gulches that can collect water during a lightning flood. High wind can cause property damage and fall trees and electrical lines, potentially pose a danger, while hail may be deadly if the pieces are large enough, or at least cause serious bruises.

In some areas, the tornadoes are associated with storms. Although this is not always happening, the tornado can be very dangerous for people who catch it, and can contribute to damage to property if large enough. If you live in an area that is susceptible to tornadoesM, should be shelter during the basement storms to avoid a potentially devastating feeling caught in a tornado.

If you have small children, make sure it will understand the safety of thunderstorms, especially if you live in an area where storms are frequent. Be aware that lightning can also accidentally hit far from the storm, so if you can hear or see a storm, you should take measures to protect yourself. You may also want to consider wearing your ear protection, because thunder at high levels of decibels may affect your hearing or leave you with ringing for several days.
