Is it really unsafe to be near the window in thunderstorm weather?

Thunderstorm weather, there are certain security risks near the window.

First of all, we should avoid using telephone, TV, computer and other electrical equipment indoors that may introduce lightning strikes into the room. Secondly, don't get close to indoor metal equipment, such as heating pipes, water pipes and steel columns. To prevent lightning current from jumping into human body through them. Because lightning rods can only protect buildings, they can't do anything about lightning that invades from wires, telephone lines and metal pipes.

Therefore, in thunderstorm weather, there are still some hidden dangers in indoor windows, but the dangers can be avoided by closing doors and windows, unplugging power plugs and staying away from metal equipment.
