I apologize for any confusion. No, crouching into a ball is not the recommended action during a lightning storm. It is not safe to be in an open area during a lightning storm. The safest course of action would be to find a secure shelter such as a building or a hard-topped vehicle. If there is no shelter available, you should find a low-lying area away from trees, bodies of water, and metal objects, and crouch down with your feet close together. However, it is important to note that being outside during a lightning storm is extremely dangerous, and it is always best to seek shelter if possible.
