Lightning weather is in the wild

When encountering a thunderstorm in the wild, it is not easy to be dangerous to squat down with your legs together. Outdoor lightning protection measures mainly include:

1, in thunderstorm weather, don't stand, squat down to lower the height, and put your feet together at the same time to reduce the damage caused by stepping voltage.

2, don't stand under the tree, can't touch the tree with your hands, because at this time the wet trunk has become a lightning protection device, it is best to be 5 meters away from the tree.

Don't stay near the water or in the depression. Don't stand near roofs, hilltops or other conductive objects. You should quickly go to a dry room to shelter from the rain. If you can't find a house, go to the nearest mountain or rock to shelter from the rain.

4. Don't stay in the thunderstorm with metal objects. Put metal objects 5 meters away from you. It is not advisable to carry an umbrella or a badminton racket on your shoulder in thunderstorm weather.

5. Wear rubber shoes when going out in thunderstorm weather, which can play an insulating role and is not suitable for driving a motorcycle and riding a bike. People are generally not struck by lightning in the car, because the closed metal conductor has good lightning protection function, so be careful not to stick your head and hands out of the window.

Extended data:

The lightning current generated when lightning occurs is the main source of harm, and its harm includes direct lightning strike, induced lightning strike and intrusive lightning guided by overhead lines. For example, overhead lines used in various lighting, telecommunications and other facilities may introduce lightning into the room, so strict preventive measures should be taken. Parts vulnerable to lightning strike:

1, tall buildings, storage tanks, etc. Lack of lightning protection devices or unqualified lightning protection devices;

2. The metal roof is not well grounded;

3. Buildings and trees in wet or open areas;

4. Due to the conductivity of flue gas, chimneys are particularly vulnerable to lightning strikes;

5. There is a radio on the building without lightning protection and no good grounding.
