(CDC)When I was young, my mother hand some strong held beliefs about what to do and not do during a thunderstorm. Never take a shower during a storm, everything needed to be unplugged and preferably sit in the dark. These old wives tales were told to her by my grandmother. Needless to say, I always think of these do's and don'ts when it storms! Check out the link to see what else was the norm of what not to do! (Entergy Newsroom)Today is "Lucky Penny Day!"
