美国佛罗里达州男子卡梅隆·格拉斯哥的妻子肯尼亚(31岁)和两岁女儿肯内迪在8月23日于马盖特市一处民居车道遭闪电击中身亡1。这场悲剧发生在迈阿密都市区,同时在场的还有格拉斯哥本人及其双胞胎女儿肯斯丽,后者当时在车内并未受伤,而格拉斯哥虽距离闪电仅数英尺之遥,但仅受到部分影响1。
格拉斯哥在社交媒体上表达了他的悲痛与感悟。他表示"我失去了我最好的朋友",同时失去了女儿和双胞胎女儿肯斯丽的玩伴1。在这场灾难后,他向人们发出了深切的呼吁:"拥抱你的人,紧紧拥抱他们,因为他们是百万分之一"1。他还感谢了社区的支持,使他们的"杯子满溢"1。
根据美国疾病控制与预防中心的数据,美国年均约有3700万次闪电击中,个人被闪电击中的概率少于百万分之一,但被击中的受害者中约90%能够存活1。美国国家气象局提醒,闪电可在距离风暴25英里(40公里)范围内击中目标1。
A Florida man is grieving the loss of his wife and young daughter after they were struck by lightning on August 23 in the driveway of their home in Margate, located in the Miami metropolitan area.1 Cameron Glasgow's wife Kenya, 31, and his two-year-old daughter Kennedy died in the incident, while his twin daughter Kensley, who was inside a parked vehicle at the time, remained unharmed.1 Glasgow himself was struck from only several feet away but survived with partial effects from the strike.1
Following the tragedy, Glasgow took to social media to reflect on the devastating loss, stating "I lost my best friend" and calling on others to prioritize their loved ones.1 "Hold tight to your people, embrace them tight, because they are one in a million," he posted, adding that the outpouring of community support had made their "cup overflow."1 According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, roughly 37 million lightning strikes occur annually across the country, with the probability of an individual being struck at less than one in a million; approximately 90 percent of lightning strike victims survive.1 The National Weather Service has warned that lightning can strike from distances up to 25 miles away from an active storm.1
