Did you know that lightning strikes 25 million times a year in the US? Remember that no place outdoors is safe when thunderstorms are in your area!
Visit weather.gov/safety/lightni… to learn more about lightning safety.

Seek shelter indoors, and keep these tips in mind to stay safe if a tornado warning is in place for your area.
