basement or small central room in a sturdy structure.
For your protection move to an interior room on the lowest floor of a
building.

are occurring with these storms. Move indoors immediately. Lightning
is one of nature's leading killers. Remember, if you can hear
thunder, you are close enough to be struck by lightning.
