Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
A thunderstorm is also known as a lightning storm. When the warm air rises to cold air, then this warm air becomes cooler. Due to this, moisture occurs, and as a result, water vapour occurs. Therefore, we should not carry an umbrella during thunderstorms. Furthermore, during thunderstorms, which are accompanied by lightning, electric discharge from the clouds can travel through the metallic rod of the umbrella. It may cause an electric shock to the person who is carrying it. Hence, it is not safe to take an umbrella during thunderstorms.
