A. find shelter
When you hear thunder, it means lightning is close enough to strike you. Here's what you should do:
**1. Get Inside Immediately:**
* The safest place to be during a thunderstorm is inside a substantial building with plumbing and electrical wiring, or a hard-topped metal vehicle (not a convertible).
* **Stay inside** for at least 30 minutes after the last thunder. Lightning can strike even after the rain has stopped.
**2. If You're Indoors:**
* **Avoid contact with water:** Do not shower, bathe, wash dishes, or do laundry. Lightning can travel through plumbing.
* **Avoid electronic equipment:** Do not use computers, laptops, game consoles, or wired phones. Unplug appliances if possible, but don't risk going outside to do so. Cell phones and cordless phones are generally safe to use, but avoid using them while plugged in.
* **Stay away from windows and doors:** Lightning can travel through glass and metal frames.
* **Avoid contact with concrete walls or floors:** Lightning can travel through metal wires or bars in concrete. Lean against wood walls instead.
**3. If You're Outdoors and Cannot Get Inside:**
* **Seek shelter in a low-lying area:** Get as low to the ground as possible, but avoid lying flat. Lightning can cause ground current, which can travel through the earth's surface. Crouch down in a ball-like position with your head tucked and hands over your ears.
* **Stay away from tall objects:** Trees, power lines, flagpoles, and other tall objects are more likely to be struck by lightning.
* **Stay away from bodies of water:** Get out of lakes, rivers, pools, and other bodies of water immediately.
* **Stay away from metal objects:** Avoid contact with metal fences, metal bleachers, metal equipment, and golf clubs.
* **Spread out:** If you are in a group, spread out to avoid multiple casualties from a single lightning strike.
* **The "30-30 Rule":** If you can count 30 seconds or less between seeing lightning and hearing thunder, lightning is close enough to strike you. Seek shelter immediately. Wait 30 minutes after the last thunder before resuming outdoor activities.
**Important Considerations:**
* **Lightning can strike even if it's not raining.** Don't assume you're safe just because the sun is shining.
* **Rubber tires on a car offer no protection from lightning.** You are safe inside a hard-topped metal vehicle because the metal frame will conduct the electricity around you.
* **Lightning victims do not carry an electrical charge.** It is safe to touch them and provide first aid. Call for emergency help immediately.
* **If someone is struck by lightning:** Check for burns, difficulty breathing, or cardiac arrest. Start CPR if necessary.
**In summary: When thunder roars, go indoors! If you can't, get low!**
