if it's a thunderstorm, that means there's lightning, not necessarily a tornado. You're thinking of a tornado. Lightning may strike trees, water, and tall objects, so it's best to stay away from them. The answer is C

The correct answer is option C, stay away from trees, water, and tall objects.

Reason -

Whenever there is a thunderstorm , one must try to stay in place that are devoid of material conducting electricity. In case if some one hide under a tree during a thunderstorm, there are high chances that if lightning hits the tree, the ground charges will spread in all directions thereby leading to more serious causalities.
