“For those hiking or backpacking try to find sturdy shelter by early afternoon,” the NWS wrote on Facebook. “If you are stuck outside try to lose elevation, and seek out a stand of uniform, short trees/shrubs. Avoid peaks/ridges, isolated or tall trees, water, metallic objects, large boulders, wide open spaces, shallow caves, and rocky cliffs or overhangs.”
