On second thought: Please leave it up! I changed my mind.@Monkman777
Hi! Can you please delete this post? It was intended for my profile, not for the forum, my bad, I messed up.
I put the actual vid instead of the link.On second thought: Please leave it up! I changed my mind.
Thank you ! Much appreciated!I put the actual vid instead of the link.
I have been wondering about that too - at first I took it for some kind of "ambient" music, but towards the end of the vid it did seem to be a siren plus I heard the voice of a man a couple of times.Is the noise a warning siren?
The tornado ripped through a warehouse full of kazoos a few moments earlier. That's the sound of seven million kazoos in a tornado.Is the noise a warning siren?
Is this Ai called Sherlock? As in No Shit.Here is (belated) information about lighting lasting more than a minute, such as seen in the video above (info from Ai):
AI Overview
While it's highly unusual, it is possible for lightning to appear to last for a minute due to continuing current or cloud-to-cloud flashes. However, a single, bright flash of lightning typically lasts for a fraction of a second, usually around 0.2 seconds.
Here's why:
While the bright, ground-based flashes you typically see are very brief, these other phenomena can create the perception of lightning lasting for a minute.
- Continuing Current:
Some lightning flashes, known as hot lightning, contain a prolonged flow of electrical charge, rather than a series of brief return strokes. This can make the lightning appear to last longer.- Cloud-to-Cloud Flashes:
Lightning can also occur between clouds, without reaching the ground. These can appear as a series of flashes or a sustained glow, giving the impression of a longer duration.- Reflected Light:
In some situations, particularly at night, lightning can reflect off clouds or other surfaces, making it appear as though the flash is lasting longer than it actually is.
The information pertaining to lighting, above, was supplied by Google, as it says, (partial) quote:Is this Ai called Sherlock? As in No Shit.

"AI Overviews:
Purpose:
To quickly grasp key information from various sources, especially for complex topics. "
Irony: note the "quickly".... because at the bottom of the list of reasons to use the Ai overviews it says, quote:
"Importance of checking information:
Users are encouraged to double-check AI-generated information by consulting multiple sources and clicking on the provided links
[My bold]
So there goes the time Ai saved for you with the ready made summary ! And apart from that.... how can we know whether the "multiple sources" are reliable sources, so in fact we need to check those too, lol
(I did in fact double check the lightning info, elsewhere.)
