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.
The safest and most obvious place to be in a thunderstorm is indoors. If lightning strikes a house or a building directly, it will tend to follow the available paths to ground, including the electrical wiring, plumbing, cable or telephone lines, antennas and/or steel framework. RIGHT: When lightning hits skyscrapers, the current is diverted safely to ground.
