Matters needing attention in lightning weather

1, don't stay on the platform of high-rise buildings in thunderstorm weather, and don't enter isolated shacks, sentry boxes, etc. In the open air.

2. Stay away from the exposed water pipes, gas pipes and other metal objects and power equipment in the building.

3. It is not advisable to hide under the big tree during a thunderstorm. If necessary, you must keep a distance of 3 meters from your torso, squat down and put your legs together.

4. If there are ants crawling on the head, neck and hands when thunder and lightning strike, and the hair stands on end, it means that lightning is going to happen. You should get down on the ground quickly to reduce the risk of being struck by lightning, and bring the metal ornaments, hairpins and necklaces you are wearing.

If it is too late to leave a tall object in the outdoor thunderstorm, you should immediately find some dry insulation and put your feet together on it. Don't put your feet on the ground outside insulation, because water can conduct electricity.

6. When avoiding thunderstorm outdoors, be careful not to support the ground with your hands, and at the same time, put your knees in your hands, keep your chest close to your knees, and keep your head as low as possible, because your head is more vulnerable to lightning than other parts of your body.
