Safety information

What to do in a thunderstorm

Three things first, then what to do before, during and after. From the US National Weather Service.

For this reportSevere Weather · Mayenne

  1. When thunder roars, go indoors

    If you can hear thunder, lightning can reach you. Go into a closed building or a hard-topped car with the windows shut.

    NWS
  2. Nowhere is safe outdoors

    Not under a tree, not in a tent or a shelter open at the sides. Get away from water and high ground.

    NWS
  3. Wait 30 minutes

    Go back out only 30 minutes after the last thunder.

    NWS

Before, during, after. Here it is still “during”.

Before · When storms are forecast

  • Check the forecast

    Before going out, especially to mountains, the sea or open fields.

  • Know where to shelter

    A closed building or a car you can reach quickly.

National Weather Service

During · While it storms

  • Keep off water and plumbing

    No baths or showers, no washing up.

  • Away from windows

    And from doors and corded phones.

  • Flash floods

    Never drive or walk into a flooded road.

National Weather Service

After · When it has passed

  • Thirty minutes

    After the last thunder, not the last rain.

  • Fallen lines

    Keep away from power lines and anything touching them.
