to decide whether it is safe to remain outdoors.
During thunderstorms, stay inside a substantial, enclosed building, keep away from windows and doors, and avoid contact with plumbing and plugged-in electrical equipment. Concrete floors and walls should also be avoided when possible because they may contain conductive metal reinforcement.
Remember that no outdoor location is completely safe during a thunderstorm. Wait at least 30 minutes after the last thunderbefore resuming outdoor activities. Simple precautions can significantly reduce the risk of lightning-related injuries and help keep you and your family safe.
