Spring and Summer Storms

5/9/2022 (Permalink)

Have you ever wondered why it seems to thunderstorm more often when warmer seasons arrive?

When the warmer seasons of Spring and Summer roll around, many people get excited for nice weather and sunshine, yet fail to remember the thunderstorms that may come along. According to “howstuffworks,” thunderstorms thrive in the presence of moisture and quick-rising, hot air, which are both common in the warmer months of the year. Hotter sunlight during this time creates a warmer atmosphere, and when clashing with winter’s leftover cool, dry air, can lead to thunderstorms or tornadoes. Heavy storms can cause damage to the interior and exterior of your home, but SERVPRO can be there to help.
