Is there a different storm enviornment in Central Florida which would suggest there is a need for lightning protection?

Thank you, Ron
Ron, we were just approached about lightning rods about 15 minutes ago. We took the card, but are naturally skeptical, too. Is there anyone out there with experience regarding this? Is it a necessity here?
