Yesterday (August 7), it rained in many cities in Liaoning, accompanied by lightning.

The following accidents

It sounded the safety alarm of thunderstorm weather for everyone.

……

Six people in a tour group in Liaoyang were struck by lightning.

Three of them had broken ribs.

At about 1 1 o'clock yesterday morning, six people fell unconscious near Jiguanshan Wharf in dengta city, Liaoyang. It is understood that the citizens who fell to the ground were hit by lightning.

According to the doctor of the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University, 6 patients felt headache, chest pain, muscle weakness accompanied by palpitation, and 3 patients suffered from rib fracture. At present, the physical condition of six people is stable, but further examination is needed to see if there is any damage to the body organs.

Several injured people recalled that six of them were on the shore on the day of the incident, and soon it began to rain, and it was getting bigger and bigger. Because the six people only had four umbrellas and there was no suitable shelter from the rain, the six people had no choice but to hide under the big tree.

At that time, they were all aware of the danger, but lightning came very quickly and didn't give them time to reflect. Ms. Zhang was the most seriously injured by lightning among the six people. Not only did she have a broken rib, but she also suffered many injuries to her body and skin.

Doctors say that lightning injury will cause damage to the central nervous system, cardiovascular system and muscles, and then it will cause renal tubular blockage, some will cause renal failure, and the most serious can be fatal.

Two families in Shenyang watch TV with thunder.

The TV set was burnt out.

Ms Teng and Ms Wang, who live in Lingxi No.2 Residential Area, Yuhong District, Shenyang, were watching TV in the house yesterday. Suddenly, the electricity meter at home tripped and Ms. Teng's TV was directly damaged. Ms. Wang even saw a big fireball hit her window glass instantly and exploded.

According to the professional TV repairman, although neither TV set was turned on during the lightning, the TV set was still charging in standby mode because the power plug was not unplugged. At this time, when it thunders, the huge current generated by lightning is likely to enter the TV along the power cord, causing the TV to be injured.

Remind everyone:

Try to stay indoors in thunderstorm weather, and outdoor personnel should hide in buildings or cars with lightning protection facilities; Don't shelter from the rain under trees, telephone poles and tower cranes; If you are in an empty area where there is nowhere to hide, people should try to avoid being the commanding heights.

In the thunderstorm season, the relevant property units should also check the lightning protection measures of high-rise residential buildings in advance, especially the elevator shaft at the top floor, so as to prevent problems before they happen.
