Update: Storms with hail of marble size Tuesday

An updated report from the National Weather Service was published Tuesday at 7:36 p.m. for strong thunderstorms until 8:15 p.m. for the county of Klamath and the east of Klamath and the County of Central and Eastern Lake.

Wind gusts up to 40 MPH and marble size hail (0.5 inches) are planned.

“At 7:36 p.m., the Doppler radar followed a strong thunderstorm near the Silver Creek campsite, or 48 miles east of Lake Crater, moving northeast to 35 mph,” said the meteorological service. “Rafales winds could bring down the members of the trees and blow around unleashed objects. Minor damage to external objects are possible.”

The locations affected by the alert include the Antler campsite and the start of the trail, the Silver Creek campsite, Lake Silver, the farm campsite and the start of the trail, the Thompson reservoir field and the East Bay campsite.

The meteorological service comments: “If the outside, consider looking for a shelter inside a building”.

Prepare imminent love at first sight: expert security recommendations

Each year, lightning strikes the United States about 25 million times, the majority of these electrifying events occurring during the summer months. Unfortunately, Lightning is responsible for the old life of around 20 people per year, as reported by the meteorological service. The threat of lightning becomes more pronounced as thunderstorms are getting closer, culminating when the storm is directly above the head and gradually decreasing as it moves away.

To ensure your safety during a thunderstorm, consider the following recommendations:

Lightning safety plan:

• When you venture outside, it is essential to establish a clear plan to search for a shelter in case of lightning.
• Watch the sky to threaten the signs and listen to the sound of thunder. If thunder is audible, it is an indication that lightning is nearby.
• Look quickly in a safe place, preferably inside.

Interior safety measures:

• Once you are inside, avoid using roping phones, electrical devices, plumbing accessories and stay away from windows and doors.
• These precautions contribute to reducing the risk of electrical overvoltages, as lightning can follow the conductive tracks.

Wait for the whole light:

• After the last love at first sight or the thunderclap, wait at least 30 minutes before resuming outdoor activities.
• Lightning can strike even when a storm has apparently passed, so being caution.

When the interior refuge is not available:

If you find yourself outside without access to an inner shelter during a thunderstorm, take these measures to maximize your safety:

• Avoid open fields, peaks or crests of the ridge, which expose you to a greater risk of lightning.
• Avoid large and isolated trees and other prominent objects. In wooded areas, stay close to the lower stands of the trees.
• If you are with a group, make sure that individuals are distributed to prevent the light from lightning from transferring between people.
• The campsite in an open setting during a thunderstorm is strongly discouraged. If no alternative exists, install the camp in a valley, a ravine or other low zones. Remember that a tent offers no protection against lightning.
• Do not approach water bodies, wet objects or metal objects. Although water and metals do not attract lightning, they effectively lead electricity and may present significant risks.

In summary, faced with the threat of lightning, vigilance and preparation are your best allies. By following these guidelines, you can considerably reduce the risks of accidents related to lightning and prioritize your safety.

Drive through showers: safety guidelines for damp roads

When heavy rains flow, the risk of flooding and treacherous roads increases. Here is your weather service guide to stay safe during showers:

Beware of swollen waterways:

Under heavy rains, absorb parking or walking near the sandes or drainage ditches, where rapid water can represent a serious danger.

Maintain safe driving distances:

Use the two seconds rule to maintain a safe distance from the car in front of you and authorize two additional seconds in heavy rain.

Slow down and stay cautious:

On wet roads, the reduction in your speed is crucial. Gradually enter the gas pedal and avoid sudden braking to avoid skid.

Choose your path judiciously:

Get the intermediate routes to minimize the risk of hydroplary. The external paths are more prone to the accumulation of water.

Prioritize visibility

Improve your high visibility by turning on your headlights. Beware of vehicles in the dead corners, because the windows in the rain can hide them.

Watch out for slippery roads:

The initial half hour of rain is when the roads are the smallest due to a mixture of rain, dirt and oil. Exercise increased caution during this period.

Keep a safety distance from large vehicles:

Do not follow too many big trucks or bus. The spray created by their large tires reduces your vision. Be careful when you pass them too; If you have to pass, do it quickly and safely.

Watch out for your wipers:

Overloaded wipe boards can hinder visibility. If the rain seriously alters your vision, stop and wait for the conditions to improve. Look for refuge in rest areas or sheltered places.

When you stop at the side of the road is your only option, position your vehicle as far as possible, ideally beyond railing. Keep your headlights and activate the emergency flashes to alert other pilots in your position.

By following these safety measures, you can considerably reduce the risks and ensure your well-being when heavy rains take place. Stay informed of weather conditions and respect the advice of local authorities to make your trip safe.
