On the morning of June 9, the leader of Tien Tien Commune People's Committee said that at around 4:30 p.m. on June 8, Mr. N. was unfortunately struck by lightning and did not survive.
At that time, Mr. N. and his wife, Mrs. TTG, were rolling up plastic to fence the fields in Dong Gia area, Cap Thuong 2 village. At that time, it was raining quite heavily with thunderstorms and lightning.
When struck by lightning, Mrs. G. quickly called for people to take her husband to the emergency room, but Mr. N. did not survive.
Mr. N. and his wife are farmers and have 3 children, of which the eldest daughter is married, one son is in the army, and the remaining son is working abroad.
Since the beginning of the rainy season, there have been many cases of people being struck by lightning and dying across the country.
The Hai Duong Province Hydrometeorological Station warns that on June 9 and 10, the Hai Duong area will continue to have moderate to heavy rain accompanied by thunderstorms and lightning. People should closely monitor weather forecasts and minimize going out when there are thunderstorms and lightning.
Statistics from the Institute of Geophysics show that every year in our country there can be 2 million lightning strikes to the ground, some localities that receive a lot of lightning are Hanoi , Hai Duong, Quang Nam and the provinces of the Mekong Delta.
When there is heavy rain and thunderstorms, people need to find safe shelter, away from river areas, aquaculture areas, rice fields, vegetable fields... to guard against lightning strikes.
In case you are outside in the rain with thunder and lightning and cannot get to a safe place in time, everyone should avoid standing in large groups close together, not standing on high ground, under trees, in open fields, not going into water, not holding metal objects such as hoes, shovels...
