Summer is here and it seems everyone is spending more time outdoors enjoying warm-weather activities. Officials with the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) and the National Weather Service (NWS) want you to remember, “When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors,” so your fun times won’t end in tragedy. The slogan is an important reminder that if you can hear thunder you’re close enough to be struck by lightning, even if the thunderstorm isn’t directly overhead.
