ALT Erica and Quentin decided to go to FDR park to have a picnic without checking the weather first. After arriving and setting up in a field, they get an alert on their phones for a thunderstorm coming to the area in 5 minutes. They are not located near any buildings and took the bus to get to the park, leaving them stranded. What should they do?
