Las storms y rainy intense can surprise us at any time of the year and although in autumn e winter It seems that we are more alert in case they occur, the truth is that also in spring and summer we can be able to avoid them, but how? discover now how to save yourself from storms, with a secret formula that will help you to flee from them.
Stay safe from storms with this secret formula
To know how to be safe from storms we must know something about meteorology but also about mathematics. As Rafael Requena, an AEMET expert delegated in Aragon, explains, a storm occurs when the air is unstable. In this way, updrafts are produced and in the event that hot air also rises (as when we are in summer), it expands and cools, so that the water vapor that forms clouds is generated.
On the other hand, there is orogeny, which the expert defines as a “mechanical aspect” and that it has to do with the fact that more storms form in mountainous areas, since the mountain itself forms an orographic air obstacle. In this case the ascent occurs due to something mechanical.
We have to do a simple math calculation
Knowing what was mentioned by this Aemet expert we could avoid the storms or in fact, guard against them before they start, but we can also know what storm is coming from lightning and a simple mathematical calculation.
All we have to do then is count the seconds that pass from when we see lightning until we hear thunder (A difference that is the result of the difference in speed, since light travels at 300,000 kilometers per second and sound at about 340). We have to divide the time by 3 and in this way we can get the distance at which the storm would be.
notice the hail
On the other hand, hail also arrives when there is a storm due to the updrafts that cause the formation of ice that, however, does not fall because those same currents support it. But sometimes that ice is propelled in the form of hail and also, the size of the boulder tells us how many times the currents have propelled it. Thus, how much larger means that it has risen several times before falling.
