Solution

We can take the following precautions to save ourselves from lightning strikes during a thunderstorm:

(1) We can take shelter in a building with lightning conductor.

(2) A car or bus with closed windows is also a safe place to take shelter.

(3) We should avoid taking shelter under a tall tree, as lightning may strike it.
