is there a scientific reason not to shower during a thunderstorm?

Answer 1

My dad was ~~electrocuted~~ shocked in the shower during a thunderstorm once. He was fine though so it must have mostly dissipated by the time it reached him.

It is definitely possible, however unlikely. They also have an old house with metal drain and vent pipes which I’d assume makes it slightly more likely than a newer house that uses pvc.

Edit: Their house uses a well which some people are saying also makes it more likely.
