There are many threads about lightning protection including detailed personal experiences and recommendations. Go to the 'search' box and look under lightning protection and surge protection.
This is a very important topic in central Florida. I would not live in a home here, with gas service, that did not have a full exterior lightning rod protection system, and a separate surge protection system, (SECO or another reputable company). If I'm not mistaken, recently the seventh unprotected house in TV was destroyed in a matter of minutes by a lightning strike which ignited the attic gas line.
