Whatever ya do. Do Not Turn On Your T.V.!!!! If lightning gets too close to it it can make your t.v. literally blow-up.  I know it's true because I've seen it happen once, and my mom also said that when she was young that happened to her. It's just a bad idea to use any thing that's plugged-in during a lightning storm including a computer.

When I was afraid of storms, I hid under a blanket and hugged a toy. But you could try and take a nap.

I used to be petrified if thunder storms, then I went to Disney World one summer as a kid. Man, two storms a day, after a while, they became nothing, and now I can't get enough of them. Lol.
If you're outside, best thing to do, is go into a house, or a car. Next best thing to do, is get as low as you can if the strikes are right above you. Me, I drive around trying to photograph the weather. Lol

Me, I drive around trying to photograph the weather. Lol Also, never get below or near a tree. Try not to be too close to the highest object around/try not to be the tallest thing in the area because that's what's most likely gonna get hit. Here's a random fact: It's estimated that over 40,000 thunderstorms occur each day around the world.

Not the best, but here are a couple I scored on the last storm in the mountains   If I had a tri-pod and an auto trigger, it would be so much better, and easier. Lol
