Thunder and lightning my way...bump!

Has lightning ever caused damage to anyones property?

Florida has the most amount of lightning in the US but even though you see it practically ever night, I was just wondering if it has actually caused any damage (besides what you read in the paper).

well we lost the alarm system, several appliances and the Olive tree from a direct hit to the tree one year.
we also lost some electronics on a surge thru the phone lines once too
a month ago the neighbors lost their AC system ($7000 to replace) from a hit

wow, sorry to hear all that.

When I look into the sky I often think the bolt I just saw must have hit the ground somewhere but I never hear anything.

I've always been intrigued by lightning until I moved down here and saw that lightning in other states go sideways but lightning in Florida goes downward toward the ground.

last weekend in Tampa there were 2 homes lost to lightning strike fires. and those times were not all the ones that get tourists too dumb to get off the golf course or beach.
I think we are just lucky with all the strikes we have here that so few lead to real nasty damage.

You know how it is, Starry...the sun is probably shining in Seminole, even though it's raining in Tarpon!
