Fatal Forecast | Lightning - Deadly Forces of Nature

Lightning. It’s one of nature’s most spectacular and potentially deadly displays. It is unpredictable, powerful, and strikes with unfathomable frequency.

While natural disasters such as earthquakes and cyclones may claim more lives annually, the effects of lightning strikes can last a lifetime. 


While reduced lightning seems like a good way to mitigate its destructive forces, life on Earth would be severely threatened.


Without any lightning at all, life would cease to exist. Advances in warning systems and tracking devices are helping scientists save lives, but they still aren’t one hundred percent foolproof.


The best course of action still remains to be weather-aware and to head indoors when thunder roars.
