Yes, you can charge your phone, but it would be unsafe to do so. Your phone or charger, or both could be severely damaged. And under no circumstances use your phone while it’s charging. It’s completely safe to use your phone during a storm as long as it’s not plugged in.

Superbolt may refer to: An unusually powerful lightning bolt.

It can be dangerous to take a shower or a bath during a thunderstorm. On average, 10-20 people get struck by lightning while bathing, using faucets, or handling an appliance during a storm. Metal plumbing and the water inside are excellent conductors of electricity.

Dropping an electrical appliance into the bathtub is often lethal precisely because of that. That is why a 120-volt hair dryer dropped in the bathtub can kill a person, but grabbing the terminals of a 12-volt car battery with dry hands produces no meaningful shock.

“Don’t shower during a thunderstorm or you could get struck by lightning.” “If your house is struck, lightning tends to go through either the wires or the plumbing, so that means anything that’s plugged into the wall or connected to an outside wire could become energized …

“It felt like you’d actually been walloped by something, or you were inside a bass speaker.” As the bolt struck, there was a millisecond flash of intense, burning heat, that had already dissipated by the time his brain could even register it.

Getting Struck by Lightning in Genshin Impact At the very eastern side of the map, you can visit the Guyun Stone Forest, and head just to the west of the dungeon there. We’ve included a screenshot of the location on the map down below. Once there, just run around and wait for lightning to strike you.

Just before lightning actually strikes, static energy is going to fill the air. If you look at your arms, you may see the hair on your arms standing on end. You may also feel a physical tingling sensation throughout your body, especially in your extremities.

If you’re caught in a storm while driving, you are safest in an enclosed, metal vehicle. (This means hard-topped cars with all of the windows shut.) If your car is struck by lightning, the current will flow through the metal body of the vehicle to the ground. Do not touch anything metal inside of your car.

Even if there’s barely any lightning, there are still trace amounts of lightning-produced ozone and nitrogen dioxide in the air scattered about the storm. When the gust front of a storm carries it out ahead of the rain, you can smell it before it’s “scavenged” to the ground. You may just be smelling lightning.

Lightning is a perfect example of making an abundance of O3 to purify the earth’s atmosphere Nature’s way. Most of us have noticed the clean, fresh smell in the outdoor air after a thunderstorm, or the way clothing smells after it has been dried outside on a clothesline in the sun.

The smell is probably ozone, which typically has a sweet, pungent aroma. In stormy weather, lightning splits atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen molecules. These can then combine into nitric oxide, which, with further reactions, forms ozone.

Petrichor

Most of us have probably smelt that lovely fresh, earthy aroma of an approaching rain storm. Now scientists have discovered why people can smell the storms so far away. A sensitive snout is smelling ozone, petrichor and geosmin; in other words, the nose smells oxygen, the debris that raindrops kick up and wet bacteria.

The sense of smell is heightened by humidity in the air. The heat captures the moisture better, more moisture equals more scene we can pick up. At night, humidity goes down and heat goes down. So we smell less things, and able to pick up good scent.

It doesn’t make sense to shower at night, nobody has to smell your stench while you’re in bed.

The morning air has lesser amount of vehicle exhaust, dust, soot and smoke. Moreover the photosynthesis process has just started, so the oxygen levels in the lower atmosphere is currently higher. All these effects make the morning air relatively “fresh” and can be perceived by our olfactory senses.

Dirty Filter or Vents A dusty air filter could create a smoke type of smell. If you just bought your home and are using the heat or air conditioning for the first time, tobacco residue in the air vents could create an odor of smoke in your living spaces. Duct cleaning and changing the air filters may help.
