THUNDER HEARD TEN MILES
Ibdistinct nt That Distance and A.
fected by the Air.

While lightning may be seen and its H.
Elimination Of clouds and mist may be
recognized when it is even 200 miles dis.
tant, thunder is rarely audible more than
10 miles. The thunder from very distant
storms, therefore, seldom reaches the ear
The reason Of the great uncertainty in the
audibility of thunder is not difficult to
the initial intensity of the crash, but
quite as much on the surroundings of the
observer, even as in the quiet country one
will observe feeble sounds that escape the
ear in a noisy city. Perhaps the most
curious and important condition of audi.
bility is that the thunder wave OF sound
shall not be refracted or reflected by the
layers of warm and cold air between the
observer and the lightning or by the lay
ers of the wind, swift above and slow be-
low, so as to entirely pass over or around
the observer. Sound in its wave-likc
progress Obliquely through layers of air
of different intensities is subject to re.
fraction, and this refraction may occur at
any time and place. Thus, observers at
the topmast of ship frequently hear fog
whistles that are inaudible at sea level;
those on hill tops hear thunder that can
not be heard in the valley; those in front
of an obstacle hear sounds that are in
audible to those behind it. The rolling
of thunder, like that of distant cannon.
ades ssy be largely due to special reilec
tioffsand refractions Of sound.
