UPCOMING LIVE INTERVIEW OPPORTUNITY: LIVING UNDER THE LIGHTNING BOLTS
-- RESEARCH COULD IMPROVE SEVERE WEATHER FORECASTING, JUNE 11
TOPIC: In the time it takes you to read this sentence, lightning will strike
about 100 times around the world. A single bolt has 1 trillion watts of
electricity with temperatures up to 27,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
Lightning is one of the most powerful forces in nature. Understanding it
takes dedicated, intensive study. Lightning researchers are pursuing
more accurate severe weather forecasting and improved public safety.
This week, experts from around the world are talking about lightning and
other flashy subjects at the 11th quadrennial International Conference
on Atmospheric Electricity in Guntersville, AL.
