Caught in a thunderstorm?

Here's what to do: Take shelter in a car or building. Don't use electrical equipment, including the telephone, and stay away from windows and metal, such as pipes and radiators. if you're outside, never take shelter near or under a lone tree, and keep away from open ground and ridges. Shelter, instead, in a cave; in a wood, avoiding taller trees; in a hollw or dry ditch, or under a hedge, avoiding high points. Crouch down, keeping your feet together, or curl up into a ball. Discard metal items, such as golf clubs, spades and bicycles.
