Description: On a hot, summer day Stephen Wald, his two boys and their friend found themselves caught in a terrifying thunderstorm.

They encourage you to check weather forecasts so you can plan to stay inside when a storm threatens, seek safe shelter in an enclosed building or vehicle if caught in a storm, and to stay far away from any downed power lines.
