Is it dangerous to play mobile phone indoors when it thunders?

The electromagnetic radiation emitted by mobile phones is actually very, very weak. Even in thunderstorm weather, we will not be struck by lightning when playing mobile phones. Of course, there are still some places to pay attention to when playing mobile phones in thunderstorm weather. For example, when playing mobile phone at home, be sure to stay away from the window, which will be safer. If you are outdoors, if you are in a relatively high place or have some heavy metal things on you, it is likely to lead to lightning strikes. It doesn't matter whether you play with your mobile phone or not.

In fact, more than 99% of buildings are equipped with lightning rods, especially tall buildings. When it thunders, the lightning rod can lead the lightning underground, so on the whole, we are relatively safe. And the radiation emitted by our mobile phones is almost negligible. Even if it rains, we will not be struck by lightning when we stand outside and play with our mobile phones. Don't worry.

But in rainy days, if you exercise outdoors, there are many places to pay attention to. First of all, whether we will be struck by lightning has a lot to do with our height. If you stand in a particularly high place at this time and there are many metal objects around, it is easy to attract lightning. Therefore, the most correct way is to never go outdoors at will in thunderstorm weather, especially when there is a lot of thunder. It is better to hide indoors, which is safer.

There is a folk saying that people who have been struck by lightning have done many bad things, but this is actually a statement without scientific basis. They are actually struck by lightning because the metal objects on them attract lightning. Therefore, in thunderstorm weather, don't bring some heavy metal objects, which will make it more dangerous to walk outside. Everyone can remember these little common sense at ordinary times, so there is no need to worry about thunderstorm weather.
