Data collected from the optical through infrared to the radio show that the Seyfert galaxies NGC 1275, NGC 3227, NGC 4151, NGC 5548 and NGC 7469 exhibit signs of flows or jets. The characteristics of night-to-night variations of Balmer line profiles and/or intranight continuum variations were obtained and investigated at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory. They permit to suppose, that short term variability of the Balmer lines and intranight continuum variations can be produced in short lived shocks as a result of strong energy output in the form of gas flows or jets.
