What does thunder portend after beginning of autumn

The thunder after beginning of autumn indicates the late summer and early autumn. China has a traditional idea that if beginning of autumn thunders later, it may indicate some signs and natural changes.

First of all, the thunder after beginning of autumn can predict the change of temperature. Summer is hot and humid. When cold air begins to penetrate into the earth, the warm and humid air it encounters will cause convection and form clouds. This kind of weather situation is easy to lead to thunderstorm activity, and then thunder occurs. Thunder can indicate that the weather will gradually cool down, the temperature will drop, and the coolness of autumn will gradually come.

Secondly, the thunder after beginning of autumn may also indicate that the climate is unstable. Autumn is a period of alternating seasons, great climate change and frequent encounters between cold and warm air. This situation is likely to lead to thunderstorms. Thunder implies the instability of the weather and reminds people to take precautions against natural disasters, such as lightning strikes, strong winds and heavy rains.

In addition, the thunder after beginning of autumn was also given a superstitious explanation by some people. Some people think that the thunder after beginning of autumn is the alternation of heaven and earth, indicating that the mysterious forces of nature are running. This concept originated from the ancient explanation and speculation of natural phenomena and lacked scientific basis.

Matters needing attention in thunderstorm weather

1. Do a good job in indoor safety: to ensure your own safety during thunder, please stay indoors as far as possible and stay away from doors, windows and metal objects that are likely to cause danger. At the same time, turn off electrical equipment to avoid contact with conductive objects such as electronic equipment, sockets and wires, and reduce the risk of electric shock. These simple preventive measures can effectively protect our lives. Please remember and follow these suggestions, stay vigilant and ensure the safety of yourself and others.

2. Avoid outdoor activities: Try to avoid outdoor sports or activities in thunderstorm weather. If you are outdoors, look for safe lightning protection measures as soon as possible, such as in buildings, cars (closed windows) or low-lying areas.

3. Avoid contact with water: Avoid contact with water in thunderstorm weather, such as swimming, bathing or wading. Water is a good conductor of current, which may increase the risk of being struck by lightning.
