An overview of the global statistics on lightning fatalities
Lightning is a major cause of weather related mortality around the world. In the United States, lightning typically kills more people in a year than any other storm disaster except floods. Due to persistent lightning safety efforts and an annual National Lightning Safety Awareness Week campaign, US...
