There are at least 100,000 thunderstorms a year across the  United States.Lightning can send a spectacular power  surge along any conductive line destroying everything in its path. The  most likely scenario is not a direct lightning strike but rather a  nearby strike on a transformer or piece of electrical equipment. If the  surge is powerful enough, it travels instantaneously through wiring and  telephone lines with the electrical force equivalent of a tidal wave.  The surge enters your home via electrical, telephone, or cable lines,  putting all connected equipment at risk. Even a slight surge can damage  delicate modern electronics such as computers, fax machines, stereo  systems, scanners, and printers.<a href="http://4allyourneeds.blogspot.com/2012/02/protect-pc-form-lightning.html" target="_blank">Read More></a></blockquote>
