POA ad on page 19 lists, Triangle Lightning, 483-7020.

Went to the meeting on Tuesday, 6/17/14, at Laurel Manor and listening to a presentation.

1. Lightning is unpredictable.
2. When you hear the thunder roar, go indoors.

There are two kind of hits:
1. A direct hit that will start a fire. Especially those who have gas lines, in their attics.
2. An indirect hit that will possibly, blow out appliances. They suggested having your appliances plugged into a surge protector.

Chances on a direct hit is 1 out of 775,000. Indirect hits are more likely. I know I would sleep better at night, feeling protected, for whatever, the cost maybe.
