Suggest three measures to protect ourselves from lightning.

We must protect ourselves from lightening in the following ways:

● We must find a safe place to stay. A house or building are safe to stay in. If we are in a car or a bus, we must keep the windows and doors of the vehicle shut.


● If there is no shelter available, we must remain in the squat position.


● We must avoid the use of telephone cords, electrical wires and metal pipes.


● Bathing should be avoided during thunderstorms to avoid contact with running water.


● Electrical appliances like computers, TVs, etc., should be unplugged.
