| Answer/Response: | "According to the Lightning Safety Institute, lightning is very unpredictable. You can be 6 to 8 miles away from a lightning strike and still be in immediate danger. Consequently, they recommend, "if you hear it, clear it." In other words, if you hear thunder or see lightning, it's time to pack up and seek shelter.
