1, which can be large or small.

Summer is the most common season for thunderstorms, with thunder and lightning and heavy rain. This is because in summer, the water vapor moves faster and the clouds move more violently, which causes the weather to change very quickly, but it usually comes violently, and then it will gradually decrease until the rain stops, which is generally very heavy, and some even reach the level of heavy rain. However, there is also a saying that "more thunder and less rain", the rain is not necessarily very heavy, it depends on the weather.

The duration of thunderstorms usually ranges from a few minutes to several hours. It may stop raining before you get home, or it may not stop for two or three hours, but since it is a shower, it won't last long.

There are some things that must be paid attention to when it thunders, or lightning will "find you". If the thunder is particularly loud, close the doors and windows at home, unplug the electrical appliances as soon as possible, and don't touch the metal objects connected between home and outside. When outdoors, don't stay in an open place, don't stand on high places, don't shelter from the rain under big trees, and don't stand near telephone poles. If you go out, be careful not to ride too fast, and don't stick your head and hands out of the window when you take the bus.
