Thunderstorms.

If you are outdoors when a thunderstorm occurs:

If you count fewer than 30 seconds between a lightning flash and the thunderclap, look around for shelter. If you count fewer than 5 seconds, take shelter urgently.

Preference for shelter is in a building; failing that, in a depressed area such as a ditch or a culvert, but never under a tree. If swimming or in a boat, get back to shore immediately.

Do not ride bicycles, motorcycles, golf carts or tractors or use metal shovels or implements.

If caught in the open, do not lie flat, but crouch in the leap frog position and lower your head.

If you are in a vehicle, stay there but pull away from trees where heavy branches might fall on you.

High Wind Events / Tornadoes.

Should a high wind event or tornado occur in conjunction with a thunderstorm:

Take shelter in an inner hallway or room, ideally in the basement or ground floor. Failing that, take shelter under a heavy table or desk.

Do not use the elevator, and stay away from windows.

If you are outdoors, take shelter in a building with a strong foundation — not in a vehicle or mobile trailer.

10.Prevention-Prevention is to ensure that human action or natural phenomena do not result in disaster or emergency. Primary prevention is to reduce -avert- avoid the risk of the event occurring, by getting rid of the hazard or vulnerability, e.g. to avoid overcrowding, deforestation and to provide services.
