Unsafe/unsafe

3. Keep a good walking state and eliminate potential safety hazards as much as possible. Don't walk in the rain with an umbrella with a metal handle, and don't touch the rails and wires. You can't run in a thunderstorm, and you shouldn't ride a bike, let alone a motorcycle. At the same time, when walking in residential areas to avoid rain, you should try to stay away from exposed metal objects such as water pipes and gas pipes and electrical equipment in buildings.

When lightning strikes or is about to happen, we must consider taking emergency measures. Thunder and lightning, if there are ants crawling on your head, neck and hands and your hair stands on end, it means lightning is going to happen. You should get down on the ground and throw away the metal ornaments you wear, such as hairpins and necklaces, to reduce the risk of being struck by lightning. If you hear thunder within seconds of seeing lightning, it means that you are in a dangerous zone near a thunderstorm. At this time, you should stop walking, put your feet together and squat down immediately. Don't get involved with people. It is best to use plastic rain gear and raincoat.

5. Don't use your cell phone in thunderstorm weather. Experts remind that there are many people surfing the Internet and using mobile phones now, so we must pay attention to thunderstorm weather. Don't surf the Internet in thunderstorm weather, don't use modem or ADSL equipment, it's best to unplug the power socket of the computer and ensure that the computer has a good grounding. It is best to install lightning arrester for household appliances. Don't pull bare metal wires from outdoor to indoor, try not to answer and dial mobile phones, and avoid ordinary phones when they are struck by lightning. Because lightning rods can only protect buildings, they can't do anything about lightning waves invading along overhead lines and telephone lines.
