Is hail deadly

Answer 1

They can be. Depends on how big the hail stones are and how many of them are falling and at what velocity. Pea sized hail fell today here but I swore it was going to break a window because it was coming down so hard and in such great quantities. Whole house sounded like a giant popcorn machine.

Answer 2

Hail of a significant size can cause injuries to people. Direct injuries from hail could be as severe as concussion or cuts. Indirect injuries from hail could be injuries from broken glass or other objects that were struck by falling hail.

Answer 3

As any person that has been hit with a golfball or punched in the head will tell you, small hard objects moving at high speed can hurt quite a bit; some hailstones can be larger than your fist, and not many people enjoy being hit on the head with one.

Answer 4

Yes. Thunderstorms can kill in a number of ways. Lighting strikes can kill people directly, or start fires. Heavy rain can result in flash flooding, which can result in people drowning. Wet roads and low visibility form the heaviest rains can result in car accidents. Severe wind gusts during storms can bring down trees and overturn trailers, both of which have resulted in deaths. Thunderstorms can also spawn tornadoes, which kill dozens every year. A handful of people have even been killed by hail.

Answer 5

Yes. Even if the storm does not produce a tornado, a severe thunderstorm can produce large hail, destructive winds, deadly lightning, and flash flooding. Deaths from hail are rare, but a number of people are killed each year by trees toppled by severe storm winds. Lightning and flooding kill even more people and a storm does not even have to be severe to produce them.

Answer 6

Yes. Thunderstorm can cause lightning, floods, strong winds, and tornadoes. All of which can kill.

Answer 7

Yes, a person can be essentially beaten to death by hail. However, human deaths from hail are rare at least in the United States but thousands of livestock have been killed by hail.

Answer 8

It depends how strong it is and what type of storm it actually is

Answer 9

Yes i think
