What does it mean to hail in winter

Hail in winter means too much water vapor and high air temperature.

Although thunder is rare in winter, it is not impossible. The general public generally call it winter thunder. First of all, we need to be clear about a basic fact. No matter which day it thunders in a year, it is only a natural phenomenon without warning.

The reason why it is difficult to thunder in winter is mainly because the air is particularly dry, the solar radiation is weak and the climate is cold, so it is difficult to form convection in the air.

In winter, the temperature of high-altitude clouds is generally below zero degrees Celsius, and the water vapor in the clouds will condense into snow. Because the temperature on the ground is not high, the snowflakes falling from the sky will not melt, resulting in thunder and rain and snow at the same time.

Matters needing attention in hail weather

1. In case of freezing weather, close the doors and windows and minimize outdoor activities.

If it hails, people shouldn't go outside to pick up ice.

3. In case of ice mildew disaster, the power line may freeze or sag in severe cases. Stay away from lighting lines, high-voltage lines and transformers at this time to avoid electric shock accidents.

4. If you encounter ice mildew attack outdoors, you must keep calm and quickly find shelter, such as hiding indoors, hiding under a covered bus stop, or temporarily hiding under a dense tree.

5. If you encounter ice mildew attack outdoors and there is no shelter nearby, you should take an outdoor safety posture. You can squat on the ground with your hands on your head to fully protect your head, chest and abdomen from ice. If you carry a bag and other items with you, you can temporarily wear it on your head, which can reduce the injury.
