Here are some lightning facts to think about as you watch this video.
- Lightning can occur inside clouds, between clouds and from clouds to the ground.
- Most lightning strikes occur either at the beginning or end of a storm.
- Lightning kills more people on an annual basis than tornadoes, hurricanes or winter storms. It is second only to flash floods in the annual number of deaths caused by storm-related hazards.
- Around the earth there are 100 lightning strikes per second, or 8,640,00 times a day.
- The odds of becoming a lightning victim in the U.S. in any one year is 1 in 700,000. The odds of being struck in your lifetime is 1 in 3,000.
- If your hair stands up in a storm, it could be a bad sign that positive charges are rising through you, reaching toward the negatively charged part of the storm. That”s not a good sign! Your best bet is to get yourself immediately indoors.
- Lightning can—and often does—strike in the same place twice. Tall buildings and monuments are frequently hit by lightning.
