OEM TIP OF THE WEEK: STAY SAFE INDOORS DURING SUMMER STORMS
Along with sunny skies and warm weather, summer brings an increased risk of thunderstorms. With potential storms in the forecast, OEM reminds New Yorkers that thunderstorms can be dangerous even when you are indoors. If lightning strikes the building, the current can flow through the electrical wiring or water pipes. Protect yourself and your family by avoiding the land-line telephone and the shower until the danger passes.
