Dark Clouds and Thunderstorms Ahead
Different regions of the nation are experiencing outrageous intensity while waiting for the rainstorm season to come in full power of Mobile Phone. Thus, it means a lot to know how to utilize our cell phones when it is coming down. Even if the weather is nice during a monsoon, lightning and thunder can be dangerous. But what we must keep in mind is that using smartphones during lightning can put us at risk.
Hazards of Using Smartphones During Lightning
Utilizing cell phones during rainstorms and lightning can be unsafe for the telephone and deadly for the client. When lightning strikes, it may harm or burn your phone, resulting in an electric shock that can also result in death. Yes, smartphones have become an integral part of our lives, but still, we should remember that open fields and agricultural regions are more susceptible places where farmers work day long, putting their lives at stake. Apart from this fact, using mobile phones when electrical discharges are happening in the atmosphere creates another serious situation – people receive strong electrical impulses from their devices if they hold them at this moment.
Scientific Reason Behind This Danger
According to some experts’ opinion, ultrawide rays are emitted while using mobile phones, which could attract a lightning bolt toward you or anyone nearby. During such situations, one should switch off their device immediately upon seeing any sign of thunderstorm activity around them, etc. All other electronic gadgets like TVs, refrigerators, air conditioners, radios, etcetera too need shutting down so no harm will occur due to any possible surge caused by power failure induced through a direct strike by thunderbolt onto these appliances, causing fire outbreak within buildings where they were installed as stated earlier.
