Lightning Safety Tips

9/28/2018 (Permalink)

Although lightning can strike anytime, the chances for lighting increases in the summer months. Stay safe with these basic tips.

• Have a lighting safety plan, and cancel/postpone outdoor activities if thunderstorms are expected.
• If you do get caught outside, avoid high ground, open spaces, and all metal objects including electric wires, fences, etc. Seek shelter in a substantial building or a fully enclosed metal vehicle.
• If you are indoors, stay away from doors and windows. Do not use the telephone. Consider unplugging computers, power tools, and TV sets. Lighting may strike exterior electric/phone lines, inducing shocks to inside equipment.
