How does one know if a thunderstorm is outside?
A good idea is to listen for sounds of a thunderstorm first, look for heavy rain, and even feel for dry heat or a heavy atmosphere. Sometimes one can even smell a thunderstorm in the air.
When can you smell the ozone?
No. For one thing, it's quite high; well above even the tallest mountains. For another thing, it's just gas, and "feels" exactly like the rest of the atmosphere (except thinner due to its height, of course).
How do you use thunderstorm in a sentence?
His brow suddenly furrowed like a malevolent thunderstorm. We must batten down the hatches before the thunderstorm arrives! Thunderbirds arrive with thunderstorms...
What does lightning taste and smell like?
A bolt of lightning is simply a highly intense discharge of electricity, so it doesn't smell of anything. Ozone can be created by electrical discharges, so there's plenty of it about during a thunderstorm, which is what causes that unusual smell you can detect during such a meteorological event. I wouldn't say that ozone smells particularly like sulphur though... if you're smelling sulphur, I'd suggest you check for the source elsewhere.
How big is a thunderstorm?
There isn't an exact size for a thunderstorm, but they can cover a large area of land. Every thunderstorm is different, and depending on how harsh the weather is and what the environment is like, the thunderstorm may be bigger or smaller.
What does electricity smell like?
Electricity itself has no smell but electricity does create a smell. Want to smell electricity, then try this. Take a drill and remove the drill bit. Run the drill for a few seconds and then smell the vent ports at the drill motor. You will smell a sulfur like smell. Now, what you are smelling is not really electricity, but gases produced by sparks. You can see the sparks if you look carefully at the vent holes especially in a dark room. As the spark jumps through the air, something happens. The air is changed from a gas into another state of matter, called plasma. This is not like the plasma in your blood, which has the same name, but is totally different. This is a state of matter where electrons are ripped of the atoms, causing them to conduct electricity and give off light. This reaction creates ozone, but ozone is not what is really creating the majority of the smell. Much more of the smell is due to another gas produced in the plasma, a gas called nitric oxide. Once you have identified the smell, don't be surprised if you notice a similar smell after a thunderstorm. After all, a lightning bolt is a very big spark, which can produce a lot of plasma. To experience how the post thunderstorm smell feels like, just take a stove lighter(an automatic one, one which uses a battery to produce high frequency sparks) and press the button, now take the lighter near your nose and smell the gas that surrounds the lighting end....its kind of pungent.
