Lightning is terrible in thunderstorm weather. What is the diameter of lightning?

Lightning in thunderstorm weather is scary, and the diameter of lightning is large and small. The smallest lightning diameter may be only a few tens of centimeters, while the largest lightning diameter may be several meters. Because when lightning falls, people can't record this moment in time and estimate its size accurately, so there is no way to know the diameter and length of lightning accurately. In people's impression, it is always thought that the width of lightning is about 5 meters, but in fact the width of lightning may be less than 5 meters, because when people once saw lightning, they only measured it with the naked eye to be more than 20 centimeters.

First, the horror of lightning Although the width of lightning may not be very large, the length of lightning can be said to be very large, as long as 60~ 120 km. Such a wide distance is enough for people on earth to be struck by lightning. Therefore, when there is this kind of lightning, try to stay indoors and don't go outdoors. Even if you are outdoors, don't walk under trees or in open fields. Once lightning strikes a person, it will cause great pain and may even lead to death.

Second, the measurement of lightning Of course, lightning is not really unmeasurable. It requires people to prepare tools for measuring lightning in advance, then turn on the camera tools when there is lightning, and then measure the lightning in the photos in detail. He needs to put multiple cameras together at a distance, connect the cable release together, and then press the shutter button immediately when there is lightning. The pictures taken are lightning from all angles, and lightning can be measured by some scientific processing techniques.

This professional way must be implemented by professionals to avoid being struck by lightning due to improper operation.
