Is it Dangerous to Swim in the Swimming Pool When Lightning?
Question?
Q: Hi there knowledge base. I have a question. My kids never want to get out of the pool. Sometimes is raining and they want to remain playing in the water during severe thunder storms. Is it safe for them to do this? In final, that is my special dilemma.
Signing off, you are too kind. Love the good help.

A:
Hey there, thanks for stopping by. That one is easy. It is actually very dangerous. The best action to take is to get indoors immediately. It is not a rare event that a swimming pool is hit by lightning. Water is highly conductive of electricity and that is not a good combination for safety.
Perfect, onward to the end. Four Stars.
Alrighty, hope we kept our end of the bargin. Heading out on the bike.
