If a person is in open space when thunder and lightning begin, and there is no suitable shelter nearby, then the following precautions should be taken:

  1.  Stay away from poles or other metal objects.
  2. Never stand under a tree to take shelter during a thunderstorm because there is danger of lightning striking the tree and burning it up.
  3. Never lie down on the ground, instead, squat low on the ground. The person should place his hands on the knees with his head between the hands as this position will make him the smallest target to be struck
