Note: There are three important temperatures to remember when cooking meat or eggs at home: Eggs and all ground meats must be cooked to 160Â°F; poultry and fowl to 165Â°F; and fresh meat steaks, chops and roasts to 145Â°F. Use a thermometer to check temperatures.
Should You Not Shower When It's Lightning? If a thunderstorm is rolling in, your chances of being struck by lightning are one in 600,000, but this risk is elevated if you take a shower or bath, wash laundry or dishes, or even clean your hands in the sink during the storm.
Myth: If outside in a thunderstorm, you should seek shelter under a tree to stay dry. Fact: Being underneath a tree is the second leading cause of lightning casualties. Better to get wet than fried! Myth: If you are in a house, you are 100% safe from lightning. Fact: A house is a safe place to be during a thunderstorm as long as you avoid anything that conducts electricity.
