Severe Weather Facts
Tornadoes occur during each month of the year
with the peaks across Nebraska between May and July, April and June in Kansas.
Tornadoes are most likely between between the hours of 3 pm and 9 pm, but have been know
to occur at all hours of the day!
Lightning can be deadly! You are at a
greater risk when outdoors, especially under tall objects such as trees; either in or
around bodies of water, or on hilltops. Lightning heats the air near the lightning
stroke to around 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit! That is hotter than the surface of the
sun.
Flash Flooding is the #1 weather related
fatality in the United States! Flash flooding events usually occur during the
afternoon and overnight hours (just about the same time as thunderstorms). Most
people who have lost their lives were in automobiles (it takes only about 2 feet of water
to make an automobile float). |
