Four square dancers in Nanling, Anhui Province were struck by lightning. How to prevent lightning strike?

In case of lightning, we can prevent lightning by returning indoors in time, not hiding under big trees, not blindly using mobile phones, not going to empty heights, not staying in empty squares, etc.

Four people were struck by lightning while dancing in the square dance, resulting in 2 deaths and 2 injuries. After this incident, many people paid attention to it, and how to prevent lightning strikes became a matter of great concern to everyone. Don't go out in lightning weather, stay in a safe room or hide in a bomb shelter or a safe cave to prevent lightning strikes. These places are very safe, there are no conductors, and there will be no lightning strike when lightning strikes, which can avoid being hurt by lightning strikes.

When there is lightning weather, you can also avoid the rain under the big tree to prevent lightning strike, because the big tree has a strong conductive effect. If you take shelter from the rain under a tree when lightning strikes, you may be injured by lightning. Don't use your mobile phone blindly in lightning weather, especially outdoors, which is particularly vulnerable to lightning. If you must use your mobile phone, you must move to a safe place and then make a phone call, so as to ensure your personal safety.

If lightning weather is necessary, don't go to empty heights, especially when playing outdoors, and you can't climb to the top of the mountain. It's best to choose a safe cave nearby to avoid danger and continue activities after the thunderstorm. Because the top of an empty mountain is particularly vulnerable to lightning, people are easily injured in the process of lightning arrows. In addition, don't stay in the empty square in lightning weather, because the square is empty, and people will become a protrusion in the square and become the target of lightning strike.

When there is nowhere to escape in lightning weather and it is impossible to evacuate indoors in time, you should choose to squat down with your hands in a safe place to reduce the contact area between your body and the ground and reduce your height. This can also prevent lightning strikes and avoid being injured in lightning weather. Lightning strikes happen every year, but some people still don't pay attention to it. They don't know how to avoid people's luck in lightning weather, which is also the reason why lightning strikes emerge one after another. Therefore, we must raise people's awareness of crisis and avoid it in time when encountering lightning weather.
