Thunder

[birdsofafeather]

Can I still shower during thunder and lighting?
Have read you shouldn't

Please respond asap

Technically I don't think you should as there is a very small risk. Personally I have done it though when I lived in the tropics - 3 plus hours of storms was long enough to wait!

Is this joke?

No joke

Thunder terrifies me

Please respond asap

Are you serious?

You could have Googled this question instantly.

Oh allright
Wish I hadn't bothered

Okaay.....but why can’t you shower, presumably inside, in your bathroom? Very very confused...

There are lots of questions asked on here that googled could answer, so That a just a silly statement.
Its like like a school yard clique on here at times.

I'm not being cliquey or meaning to be rude, just genuinely wondering why someone can't shower if there's thunder or lightning. Feel like I'm totally missing something?!?

You'll be fine, OP.

That's why I asked

Because being struk terrifies me

just genuinely wondering why someone can't shower if there's thunder or lightning

because of the slim chance lightening hits, the voltage of the lightning would run through the water and fry you.

it not something I've ever thought about TBH as I've never wanted a shower whilst there was a thunder storm.

A for doors down (semi's) was hit by lightening when I was a teen, the power of the strike blew all the TVs in our house and the tape from the answering machine was blown across the living room.

in the house that was hit, the wires in the walls blew plaster and tiles off the walls.

A *house 4 doors down

Not if you want instant answers it isn't.

That was my point. Not that the OP shouldn't discuss thunder/lightening/showering etc.

Thanks for explaining @nameforthethread Seems highly unlikely doesn't it?

Right not thanks to me for also answering your question
Just leave my thread

Just leave my thread

What's funny

Yeah, piss off everyone!

You cannot tell and then expect posters to leave the thread , that’s just ridiculous.

Hopefully the bad weather has passed now.

I have swam outside in a thunderstorm and live to tell the tale so I think a shower in the house would be fine.

Wow, this is literally the strangest thread I have ever seem. OP, I apologise for not thanking you as well, didn't mean to offend. But really, ordering me off your thread is even more ridiculous than the original question.

The original question is not ridiculous
