Explanation:
Answer:
Thunderstorm- A storm with thunder and lightning and typically also heavy rain or hail.
*If you’re already indoors*
Avoid using corded phones and electronics such as computers or power tools. Electrical wires can conduct lightning.
Don't use your cell phone during a thunderstorm.
Don't wash your hands, shower, wash dishes or do laundry. Metal pipes in the plumbing can also conduct lightning.
High winds and hail can shatter glass, so stay away from windows, skylights and doors.
Keep drapes and blinds closed to prevent hail-shattered glass from blowing in or flying around.
*If you’re outside when a storm hits*
Take shelter when you see dark clouds or lightning, hear thunder or feel hail.
Head for an enclosed building, rather than a carport or open garage.
No enclosed structure? Get inside a hardtop, all-metal car, truck or SUV. Avoid leaning against vehicles.
Get off bicycles and motorcycles.
If no shelter from lightning is available, squat down and put your hands on your knees with your head in between to make yourself a smaller target.
If you’re in the water, head for shore immediately and avoid metal objects. Water and metal can both carry an electrical current.
If you're in a group of people, spread out.
Take care of your pets by bringing them inside. Doghouses are not lightning- or hail-proof.
