	<span style="line-height:1.5;">For the study of characteristics of the lightning
around the capsized ¡°Oriental Star¡± incident, this paper analyzes the lightning
space distribution in the surrounding, preliminary judging from characteristics
of the lightning figure out the form of disastrous weather patterns. It is
concluded that: the wreck accident happened in lightning highest frequency
period, also most lightning frequency region, as well as the biggest negative
rather than positive lightning current time bucket and region. The latest
lightning is less than 300 m from the accident,
leads to a higher possibility of damage to the ship communications equipment by
lightning electromagnetic induction, which needs to further strengthen the
safety precautions against ships during a thunderstorm.</span>
