What kind of weather should we avoid refueling?

Avoid refueling in thunderstorm weather.

The reason is that in thunderstorm weather, the air will be filled with a lot of charged particles after being struck by lightning. If the vehicle is refueled during thunder, the oil gun can easily introduce stray current into the fuel tank and cause a fire. Flammable oil vapor easily diffuses into the surrounding air. Once struck by lightning, vehicles and oil tanks will explode. The explanation given by the staff at the gas station is that the machines at the gas station are charged, which is easy to conduct electricity when it thunders, leading to oil and gas explosion. Although every gas station has lightning protection facilities, the lightning protection office will also remind you not to refuel in lightning weather. So whether it's diesel or gasoline, the size of the gas station has nothing to do with it. As long as lightning is near the gas station, the computer host of the gas station will shut down and give no gas. As for some gas stations, it is really risky and unsafe to refuel car owners in thunderstorm weather.
