True or False? The rubber tires on a vehicle will protect you from a #lightning ⚡ strike if you are outside and leaning on it. FALSE. Like trees, houses and people, anything outside is at risk of being struck by lightning when thunderstorms are present in the area, including cars. Good news is that outer metal shell of hard-topped metal vehicles does provide protection to those inside a vehicle with the windows closed. Unfortunately though, the vehicle doesn't always fare so well. #WeatherReady #kswx @NWS #SevereWeatherAwarenessWeek
Thunderstorms can produce deadly lightning ⚡ strikes up to 10 miles away. Remember this simple message: See a Flash, Dash Inside! #WeatherReady #SeeAFlashDashInside #kswx #SevereWeatherAwarnessWeek U.S. National Weather Service (NWS)
