The objective of this article is to review recent literature on the implications of extreme weather events such as thunderstorms, wildfires, tropical cyclones, freshwater flooding, and temperature extremes in relationship to asthma symptoms. Several studies have shown worsening of asthma symptoms with thunderstorms, wildfires, tropical cyclones, freshwater flooding, and temperature extremes. In particular, thunderstorm asthma can be exacerbated by certain factors such as temperature, precipitation, and allergen sensitization. Therefore, it is imperative that the allergy and immunology community be aware of the health effects associated with these extreme weather events in order to educate patients and engage in mitigation strategies.
本文旨在回顾有关极端天气事件（如雷暴、野火、热带气旋、淡水泛滥和极端温度）对哮喘症状影响的最新文献。有几项研究表明，雷暴、野火、热带气旋、淡水泛滥和极端温度会使哮喘症状恶化。特别是，某些因素（如温度、降水和过敏原致敏）可使雷暴哮喘恶化。因此，过敏和免疫学领域的专家必须了解与这些极端天气事件相关的健康影响，以便对患者进行教育并采取缓解策略。
