What to do if you're unexpectedly caught in a storm while on holiday?
What to do when a storm unexpectedly catches you during your vacation?
First, as quickly as possible, look for a safe shelter. If you are unable to find shelter, try to find low ground and crouch there, bringing your legs together.
Remember to avoid standing under trees, power poles, or in open spaces - these are places that attract lightning.
If you're in a car, stay inside - it's one of the safer places during a storm.
If you're in the water, get out as soon as possible and move away from it.
Last tip, but equally important: try not to touch metallic objects as they can conduct electricity.
Remember, safety is the most important thing, even during a holiday.
