If you're outside when clouds gather and you hear thunder, weather safety experts such as the National Weather Service recommend that you immediately seek shelter. The best place to be is indoors, but if you aren't near a building, you shouldn't take cover under a tree, especially if it is standing by itself or is the tallest in a grove of trees. If lightning strikes the tree, you can be killed by a falling branch or by electricity flowing through the tree.

it trees are not insulators that can insulate the intensity of current passing through it therefore it is dangerous.
