Dingxi City, Gansu Province recently issued a yellow lightning warning to remind the masses to take preventive measures to protect personal safety during this period. After all, lightning disasters do great harm to people.

When all walks of life are in lightning weather, the first thing to do is to close the doors and windows tightly to prevent lightning from entering or drifting indoors, which poses a threat to people's life safety. People who work outdoors should hide in buildings with lightning protection facilities in time to avoid accidents. At the same time, it is best not to use TV, stereo or other electrical appliances when it thunders, let alone touch water pipes, antennas, metal doors and windows or barbed wire, and stay away from all live equipment or similar metal devices.

In the meantime, don't make phone calls, use all kinds of electrical appliances, go swimming or engage in other water activities. If it happens to be in the water or in an open field when it thunders, you should find a safe zone in time to avoid danger, and don't stand on the roof and other dangerous areas. If you encounter lightning outdoors, you can't quickly hide in a building with lightning protection facilities. Remember to stay away from the surrounding trees.

Generally speaking, no matter what industry, try not to go out in thunderstorm weather and stay away from all kinds of metal objects and electrical appliances. Only by taking adequate preventive measures can we ensure the safety of life. Lightning strike will not only cause human and animal deaths, but also cause certain property losses to people, and even cause fires or other explosion accidents, so everyone must pay more attention to prevention.
