There are a few ways to protect yourself. One is do not get low down in a dicth. Why? Because it might get flooded. You don't want to drown, do you? Not getting that low, try not to be the tallest thing around. Lightning will strike the tallest thing on the ground. A car is a safe place to be because of its big, rubber tires. Do not talk on the phone or be on the computer because it could shock you if lightning strikes really nearby. Do not shower or bathe. These are just a few things to keep you safe.
