Abstract: | Storms are created by a combination of low and high pressure that can create winds and result in the formation of rain clouds. When moist warm air rises rapidly, a thunderstorm can form, bringing heavy rain which can be devastating and deadly. Weather-related deaths in Malta have mostly occurred in October rather than in the winter months. The first deadly storm of the past century began on October 16, 1913. The article enumerates the deadly storms of the past century and recounts the stories of the different victims. |
