Can I watch TV in thunderstorm weather?

Watching is not recommended.

If you use cable TV or satellite TV, you can watch it normally and not be affected by thunderstorm weather. However, if outdoor antenna is used to receive terrestrial TV signals, it may be disturbed by weather conditions, resulting in signal quality degradation or interruption.

Thunderstorm weather may be accompanied by lightning, and electronic equipment such as TV may be affected by lightning. For the sake of safety, it is recommended that you try to avoid touching electronic equipment such as TV in thunderstorm weather, especially outdoors. If you decide to watch TV in thunderstorm weather, please make sure that the protection measures of TV equipment and power connection equipment are intact.

Use power sockets with overcurrent protection and lightning protection functions to avoid plugging and unplugging the power cord in thunderstorm weather. In thunderstorm weather, you can choose other entertainment tools, such as reading books and newspapers. I suggest you pay more attention to the weather forecast or other media channels to ensure safety and get relevant information in time.

Measures to avoid thunderstorm weather:

1, stay indoors. People who work outdoors should hide in buildings.

Never swim or do other water sports. Get out of the water and find a place to hide.

3. Avoid using phones with plugs or other electrical appliances, including computers.

4. Never touch the antenna, faucet, water pipe, barbed wire or other similar metal equipment.

5. Avoid taking a shower with a shower.

6. Don't handle flammable items in open containers. Don't stand on the top of the mountain or near objects with high conductivity. Trees or masts are easily struck by lightning and should be kept as far away as possible. After lightning strikes an object, the current will spread through the ground, so don't lie on the ground. Wet ground is especially dangerous. You should squat down to minimize the contact area with the ground.

7, hiking and other outdoor activities, should carry a radio, always pay attention to the latest weather news released by the Meteorological Observatory.
