Thunder and taking a shower?

Question

It 's thundering and lightning. Is it safe to take a shower? No, I can't take a shower in the morning. Please help.

Answer 1

let me protect you

I will come in there and make sure you are alright

Answer 2

There is a small chance you could get electrocuted, but not big enough to worry. It will not be attracted to your shower, but if lightning hits your house (what are the odds?) then you could be electrocuted.

Go take your shower ;)

Answer 3

if ur water comes from pipes from a sanitation centre (like usual) its ok. (if u have pipes and more pipes, most likely yes its ok)

Answer 4

shower all you want you're fine

Answer 5

I took one today during a storm too, it's totally fine

people say theres a small chance the lightning could strike and conduct to your showerhead and electrocute you, but its so unlikely

Answer 6

I wouldnt reccommend it if you're asking ppl on here as to what you should do b/c it can strike and run thru the ground by the water running thru your pipes and up thru the shower so keep in mind that anything ANYTHING is possible so decide if it's worth taking that chance.

Answer 7

Most showers are surrounded by plastic and other materials that electricity cannot pass through. Also, you're (hopefully) surrounded by a house, so your main concern about lightening would just be it striking your house and bits of your roof falling on your head while taking a shower. Which is highly unlikely, and could happen regardless of whether you're showering. =]

Answer 8

now u can get shocked maybe poor some bottles of water in a bowl  and mix it with soap and wash up like that

Answer 9

hmmm...NOT A GOOD IDEA

Answer 10

it might be safe but make it short.

Answer 11

If I were you, it's risky to take a shower during a thunderstorm. If lightning hits one of the external water pipes of your house/building, the electrical current can travel with the water and you'll git hit with the electrical discharge.

Answer 12

go on and take your shower jus be really quick. be careful.

Answer 13

NEVER. It is NEVER safe to be using water when it is lightning. You have the possibility of getting electrocuted.

Answer 14

i do it all the time.
