To keep it safe under thunderstorm weather, you need to stay away from all conductive things.

Avoid going out whenever you hear thunder. However, even when staying indoors, you still face the risk of lightning attack.

Sharing with Prevention, Mr. John Jensenius, lightning safety expert of the US National Meteorological Agency recommends that if you want to be safe under thunderstorm weather, you need to stay away from all kinds of conductive electricity. including wires, plumbing and tap water.

In fact, it is not only the new metal water pipes that conduct electricity but the impurities in tap water also have this ability. Therefore, plastic water pipes cannot protect you 100%.

"Water is electrically conductive so if lightning strikes something in the middle of the puddles, the person standing near the puddle is very vulnerable to it , " Mr. Jensenius warned. "Not only bathing but washing hands, washing dishes is also very dangerous. You should stop those things when you hear thunder."
