A thunderstorm is considered severe if it produces hail at least 1 inch in diameter or has wind gusts of at least 58 miles per hour. Every thunderstorm produces lightning, which kills more people each year than tornadoes or hurricanes. Learn what you can do to be prepared, and what actions you should take during and after a thunderstorm to stay safe.
