I was coming back from the market yesterday and it began to rain. Everyone looked for where to take cover, and I went to one shop closby. As I watched across the street, I saw some people gathered under a tree, and was surprised. It is very wrong because lightening can destroy that tree, and people around would be affected too. When it's raining, please don't stay under a tree.

lovediehatelive:How can a sane person take shelter under a tree when it is raining? What if any branch of the tree falls and hit them? |

lovediehatelive: Lightening can strike even a building and people taking shelter will be greatly affected. It has nothing to do with a tree or not. Also, trees do not shade anyone from the rain as it sieves down as droplets... I don't think I've seen anyone take shelter under the tree coz they'll eventually get wet. Seems you smoked some skunks! |

lovediehatelive: Do we have it in all the buildings in Nigeria? Or will people running away from rain, be looking for houses with lightening protectors to get shelter? |

JASONjnr: Taller buildings have it. And lightening usually strike the tallest structure first |
Re: This Is Why You Shouldn't Stay Under A Tree When It's Raining (photo) by JASONjnr(m): 11:18pm On Mar 25, 2023 |
lovediehatelive: Do we have taller buildings everywhere? To shelter the people from the rain? You didn't answer my first question..... I don't think u understand what I wrote earlier.... |

JASONjnr: Leave argument for argumentative essay. don't take shelter under a tree If it's raining. If I'm to go by your question and argument, these trees are mostly taller than those buildings without lightening protector. So, buildings would be safer, because the lower the shelter, the better. |
Re: This Is Why You Shouldn't Stay Under A Tree When It's Raining (photo) by JASONjnr(m): 5:30pm On Mar 26, 2023 |
lovediehatelive: You brought the argument.... Firstly, taking shelter under the tree is never a thing as people will still get wait and that's never thoughtful of anyone.... Except where they perceived that there's no building at sight. Secondly, I never said anything about tall buildings or short buildings ... I referred to buildings in general. And whether there's a there protector installed or not... People will prefer buildings to trees. |

JASONjnr: I get your point bro. You are coming from a rational point, and that's great. The thing is that I saw some people gathered under a tree, and this is what made me create this thread. Perhaps they thought the rain won't last and won't be heavy. I just don't understand why they went under the tree. |
