Can I Use My Phone During A Thunderstorm?

Is it safe to use my phone during a thunderstorm?

The short answer is yes. Although people may think that mobile phones attract lightning, the reality is that your phone does not have enough metal to do that. Therefore, using your phone will not increase your likelihood of being struck by lightning. Any rumours that say otherwise are myths and you do not need to worry.


However, avoid using fixed line/landline phones (e.g. a home phone) during a thunderstorm.

What should I avoid during a thunderstorm?

Being on high ground, in an open space, near large metallic things, trees or water is much more dangerous than using your phone. Lightning tends to strike tall objects outside.
Things like your mobile phone, small metal items or jewellery do not attract lightning.
