Quarter-sized hail and damaging winds expected with thunderstorms to hit Chester and Delaware counties Sunday"At 4:48 p.m., a severe thunderstorm was located over Lombard, or 11 miles northwest of Elkton, moving east at 35 mph," says the weather service. "Minor damage to vehicles is possible. Wind damage to roofs, siding, trees, and power lines is possible."
To guarantee your safety in the midst of a thunderstorm, take into account the following recommendations:When venturing outdoors, it's crucial to have a lightning safety plan in place. If you find yourself outdoors without access to indoor shelter during a thunderstorm, take these steps to maximize your safety:Steer clear of tall, isolated trees and other prominent objects. In forested areas, stay close to lower stands of trees.
Do not approach water bodies, wet objects, or metal items. While water and metal don't attract lightning, they conduct electricity effectively and can pose significant risks. If the roadside is your only option, pull off as far as possible, preferably past the end of a guard rail, and wait until the storm passes. Keep your headlights on and turn on emergency flashers to alert other drivers of your position.
