Intense Storms And Lightning Are A Concern In Tarpon Springs
10/5/2021 (Permalink)
Lightning is a leading cause of injury and death from weather-related hazards. Although most lightning victims survive, people struck by lightning often report a variety of long-term, debilitating symptoms, this according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
To avoid serious injury during storms, (FEMA) also offers these tips:
When thunder roars, go indoors! Move from outdoors into a building or car with a roof.
Pay attention to alerts and warnings.
Avoid using electronic devices connected to an electrical outlet.
Avoid running water.
Turn Around. Don’t Drown! Do not drive through flooded roadways. Just six inches of fast-moving water can knock you down, and one foot of moving water can sweep your vehicle away.
