On Friday at 4:03 p.m. the National Weather Service issued a severe thunderstorm warning valid until 4:45 p.m. for Jackson County.
Published: Aug. 16, 2024, 4:08 p.m."At 4:02 p.m., a severe thunderstorm was located 7 miles west of Skyline, or 15 miles east of Moores Mill, moving east at 15 mph," states the weather service. "Hail damage to vehicles is expected. Expect wind damage to roofs, siding, and trees."
These precautions help reduce the risk of electrical surges, as lightning can follow conductive pathways.After the last lightning strike or thunderclap, wait at least 30 minutes before resuming outdoor activities.When indoor shelter isn't available: Camping in an open setting during a thunderstorm is strongly discouraged. If you have no alternative, set up camp in a valley, ravine, or other low-lying areas. It's crucial to note that a tent provides no protection against lightning.
Enhance your visibility in heavy rain by activating your headlights. Be particularly vigilant for vehicles in blind spots, as rain-smeared windows can obscure them.Be extra careful during the first half hour after rain begins. Grime and oil on the road surface mix with water to make the road slippery.Don't follow large trucks or buses too closely. The spray created by their large tires reduces your vision. Take care when passing them as well; if you must pass, do so quickly and safely.
