Best Answer

if youre indoors than i would say youre safe anywhere. if you are outdoors, then no. if lightning were to hit the table, the electricity would be dispersed in all directions through the ground and up into your body.

How do you prepare for lightning?

The only way to prepare for lightning is to stay away from it. Run to the nearest closed building or get into a closed car with a metal roof when you hear or see signs of lightning. There are no safe places out of doors during a thunderstorm. Getting under a tree is not safe. Picnic shelters, car ports, , baseball dugouts, tents, etc. are not safe. Open cars, golf carts, convertibles, jeeps, etc are not safe. Consult the weather forecasts before going camping in remote areas.
