What should I do in thunderstorm weather?

1. In thunderstorm weather, it is not advisable to drive a motorcycle, ride a bicycle or run fast in the rain, because the greater the stride of the body, the greater the voltage, and the more likely it is to hurt people.

2. If you see a high-voltage line that is broken by lightning outdoors, you should be vigilant at this time, because there is a step voltage near the breakpoint of the high-voltage line. People nearby must not run at this time, but should jump off the scene with their feet together.

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 your head, neck and hands when thunder and lightning strike, and your hair stands on end, it means that lightning is coming. Get down on the ground quickly to reduce the risk of being struck by lightning, and take away the metal ornaments, hairpins and necklaces you wear.

5. Stay away from exposed metal objects such as water pipes and gas pipes and electrical equipment in buildings.

6. When avoiding thunderstorm outdoors, be careful not to hold the ground with your hands. At the same time, put your hands on your knees, 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.

7. When you hear thunder within a few seconds after seeing lightning outdoors, it means that you are in a dangerous environment 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.
