June 23 - June 29 is National Lightning Safety Awareness Week! I'll primarily be focused on the #COwx aspect of it, but the principles apply to the entire country! Here's a look ahead at the week. #LightningSafety

#LightningSafety: 2016 saw 38 #lightning deaths, the most since 2007. This year, when thunder roars, go indoors.

#COwx Even though the risk of severe weather the next two days is low, still be prepared for gusty winds, heavy downpours, small hail, and #lightning. When thunder roars, go indoors! Each year, lightning kills around 25 people per year in the US. #LightningSafety

Hope you are all seeing a lot of great safe places today thanks to the #SafePlaceSelfie posts. It’s also important to know what are not safe places so you can avoid them. Picnic shelters and gazebos are not #lightning safe places! #LightningSafety @LtgSafeCouncil

Ope yep. @Rockies playing with #lightning just a mile away. Come on @mlb. The Rockies are even certified as StormReady with @nws. Why don’t you care about #LightningSafety? #COwx

Shout-out to the coordinators at the Ledge Amphitheater, who, upon detecting lightning in the area (w/in striking distance) & continuous thunder, paused their live music until 30 mins past the last rumble. Just restarted a few mins ago. #LightningSafety

(Impressive TBSS/hail spike an added bonus.)

Today ties 2013 for the 5th longest start to a year since 2006 without a #lightning fatality. The longest starts:

23 May 2011
9 May 2014
7 May 2017
30 Apr 2010
23 Apr 2013
23 Apr 2019

The previous 5 years to go this long ended with 16 - 29 fatalities. #lightningsafety

Huh. It’s been 5 years since @VaisalaGroup released Thunderstorm Manager to display #lightning data around the world and provide #lightningsafety alerts. I hope you have enjoyed my lightning loops from TSM in the past few years and look forward to more loops and data!

In spite of the fatalities outside the @WhiteHouse, I would like to direct your attention @POTUS @VP @PressSec to the efforts of @LtgSafeCouncil, who have helped save hundreds of lives since the early 2000s. #LightningSafety

Afraid of snakes? Keep in mind that #lightning kills more per year in the US than snakebites. Keep #lightningsafety in mind this year.

Because why not, I ranked a top-25 of #lightning schools between 2016 and 2020. The ranking is based on the number of gamedays with lightning within 8 miles. Ties are broken by the total number of lightning events detected. #LightningSafety

Can you see where thunder roared during my run? #LightningSafety means I had to speed up to get indoors

National #LightningSafety Awareness Week continues with Friday's topic: Medical Effects on Lightning Victims. "Lightning is primarily an injury to the nervous system, often with brain injury and nerve injury. Serious burns seldom occur."

On Sunday, GLD360 detected 50 #lightning events within 5 km of the mountain in 28 minutes. This is about 6x the annual lightning for the area in just a half hour - an extreme event for a place that doesn't see much lightning! #LightningSafety
