Nature’s warnings
When the sky suddenly turns dark and the wind is strong, watch out! A dangerous storm might be coming. Storms are frightening. Watch for flashes of lightning. Listen for thunder. If nature sends these warnings, don't wait for rain. Act right away to keep safe.
Safety steps
At the first flash of lightning, quickly get inside a building or a car. Do not go into a shed(棚屋) for protection. It is not closed like a building, so it is not safe.
Even after you are indoors, be careful. It is not smart to go near doors or windows. A room with no windows is the safest place. Do not wash your hands during a storm. Do not use anything that runs on electricity, either. Water and electrical lines are like roads for lightning. Even if you really want to play computer games, don't! It is better to be bored than to get hurt. Try reading a book instead. Reading is more fun than playing computer games during a storm.
If you can't get somewhere safe, stay in an open area. You may feel safe under a tree, but that is not a good place to be safe. Lightning is attracted to tall poles and trees. Stay down in an open space and cover your ears to protect them. Loud thunder can hurt your hearing.
Lightning strikes
Lightning does not strike people very often. If you do see that happen, call 120. Only trained emergency workers can care for a person who has been hit by lightning.
If you follow these rules, you will stay safe during a storm.
