Be safe during a storm this winter in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Although lightning can strike anytime, the chance for lightning increases in the winter months. Stay safe with these basic tips. SERVPRO of Scottsdale wants you to be safe during storms.

• Have a lightning safety plan, and cancel or postpone outdoor activities if thunderstorms are expected in the area.
• If you do get caught outside, avoid high ground, open spaces, and all metal objects. Stay away from electric wires, fences, etc. Seek shelter in a substantial building or a fully enclosed metal vehicle.
• If you are indoors, stay away from doors and windows. Do not use the telephone. Consider unplugging computers, power tools, & TV sets. Lightning may strike exterior electric/phone lines, inducing shocks to inside equipment.
