I was in the house when it happened and had neighbors texting me did your house get hit. Another resident in our village had a similar hit on their stove gas supply line about a month ago. I will be calling Duke to get their surge protection at the meter. I do not think from what I have read on here that lightning rods would have helped since it was not a direct hit?

I don't have the answer for that but am sorry for the damage you have suffered in your home. Happy that you weren't injured with that strike and good luck with the damage. You may want the privacy so if you don't want to share the information, I understand.. may I ask which Village these two lightning incidences occurred?
