Clinical Information. Accidental injuries caused by brief high-voltage electrical discharges during thunderstorms. Cardiopulmonary arrest, coma and other neurologic symptoms, myocardial necrosis, and dermal burns are common. Prompt treatment of the acute sequelae, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation, is indicated for survival. Code History.
23 cze 2021 · The greatest risk with nighttime thunderstorms is that they often catch people off guard. Conditions can change and become dangerous very quickly, while people are unaware or even asleep.
What causes lightning? As warm air rises it cools and condenses forming small droplets of water. If there is enough instability in the air, the updraft of warm air is rapid and the water vapour...
While most thunderstorms move with the mean wind flow through the layer of the troposphere that they occupy, vertical wind shear sometimes causes a deviation in their course at a right angle to the wind shear direction. Thunderstorms result from the rapid upward movement of warm, moist air, sometimes along a front. [5]
22 lip 2015 · Storms that form at night are likely to produce hail, damaging winds and flooding rain. Tornadoes, however, are much more likely during the day, especially during the late afternoon and early evening, not at night.
16 maj 2023 · The short answer is that an unequal distribution of electrical charges cause a static discharge, which we call lightning, while thunder is the sound that results from the rapid expansion and contraction of air around a lightning strike. Lightning causes thunder.
27 lip 2015 · Nocturnal thunderstorms that occur in large complexes or lines are capable of producing damaging winds, hail, and torrential rainfall that can result in flash flooding. Tornadoes, however,...
