38. Predicting Skim the headings, figures, photos and captions in this lesson. Then jot down two questions that you think might be answered in the lesson. Headings in this Lesson What Are Weather Emergencies? Tornadoes Hurricanes Blizzards Thunderstorms and Lightning What Are Natural Disasters? Floods Earthquakes

39. What Are Weather Emergencies? People cannot prevent weather emergencies. weather emergencies Dangerous situations brought on by changes in the atmosphere The National Weather Service (NWS) sends out bulletins in the form of storm watches and storm warnings.

40. What Are Weather Emergencies? Satellites and computers help scientists predict the paths of storms. Television and the Internet help warn the public of danger.

41. Tornadoes A tornado is a type of weather emergency. tornado A whirling, funnel-shaped windstorm that drops from storm clouds to the ground Tornados are most common in the Midwest and states nearest to the Gulf of Mexico. This region is known as “Tornado Alley.”

42. Tornadoes If A Tornado Is Happening Go to a cellar or basement. Where to Go If you cannot get underground, go to a windowless room or hallway. If you are outside, lie in a ditch or flat on the ground. Cover yourself with whatever protection you can find. What to Do Get under heavy furniture, in a bathtub, or under a mattress. Stay where you are. The storm will pass quickly.

43. Hurricanes Each hurricane has a center, or eye, where the weather conditions are calm. hurricane A strong windstorm with driving rain that forms over the sea The strong winds of a hurricane come from the swirling cloud mass that surrounds it.

44. Hurricanes If A Hurricane Is Happening Board up windows and doors. Bring inside items that the wind could smash into houses. Evacuate, or leave the area, immediately if the NWS tells you to do so. If no evacuation is called for, stay indoors away from windows and doors.

45. Hurricanes This is an image taken of a hurricane. The NWS uses satellite technology to forecast the direction of storms.

46. Blizzards A blizzard can last anywhere from an hour or two to several days. blizzard A very heavy snowstorm with winds up to 45 miles per hour During a blizzard, always stay inside.

47. Blizzards Hypothermia can shut down your body’s systems, so they stop functioning properly. hypothermia A sudden and dangerous drop in body temperature Hypothermia can lead to death.

48. Blizzards If A Blizzard Is Happening Get inside and stay inside. When outside, keep your head, face, and body covered and warm. If you are in a car, pull over to the side of the road, and turn on the flashers.

49. Thunderstorms and Lightning Lighting is a dramatic and dangerous side effect of thunderstorms. Florida leads the United States in the number of lightning storms that happen each year.

50. Thunderstorms and Lightning If A Thunderstorm Is Happening Stay inside or seek shelter as soon as possible. Unplug electrical appliances and computers. Be prepared for power loss. Avoid using the telephone. If you are outside, crouch low to the ground and stay away from electrical poles and wires, tall trees, water, and metal objects.

51. What Are Natural Disaster? A natural disaster is an event caused by nature that results in widespread damage. Basic Supplies for Natural Disasters Buy several days’ worth of fresh water. Have a radio, a flashlight, batteries, blankets, canned goods, a can opener, and a first-aid kit.

52. Floods Flash-flood waters rise very quickly and are very powerful. Two feet of moving water has enough force to sweep away cars.

53. Floods Surviving Floods Head for higher ground. Never walk, swim, ride a bike, or drive a car through flooding water. Drink only bottled water. If you have evacuated the area, return home only after you are told it is safe to do so. After returning home, throw away contaminated food and disinfect everything that has come into contact with the floodwater.

54. Earthquakes A large earthquake is usually followed by a series of aftershocks. earthquake A shifting of the earth’s plates, resulting in a shaking of the earth’s surface aftershocks Smaller earthquakes, as the earth readjusts after the main earthquake

55. Earthquakes Scientists cannot predict earthquakes, but they can measure how strong earthquakes are using the Richter scale.

56. Earthquakes 123456789 Ten times stronger than 3 Ten times stronger than 4 Ten times stronger than 5 Ten times stronger than 1 Ten times stronger than 2 Ten times stronger than 6 Ten times stronger than 7 Ten times stronger than 8 Very slight The most destructive earthquakes have a magnitude of 7 or more. Scientists have never measured an earthquake larger than a 9.
