Head indoors if you hear thunder. Lightning is close enough strike you. Immediately move to a safe shelter. While no place is 100% safe from lightning, some places are much safer than others. A shopping center, library, office building, and homes are good choices. Hopefully, we won’t have dangerous thunderstorms with lightning.
Enjoy the cooler temperatures this weekend! It’ll be a nice break for your HVAC system. Be prepared, as the 90s return to Washington the following weekend.
