One of my very dear friends in Ashland was one of those hit by lightening. The lightening hit the side of their home, traveled right through the attic (where the gas lines are) and out the other side of the home. The gas pipes ruptured but because it was not contained did not explode but did cause an extremely hot fire. Their car and golf cart were nearly melted to the garage floor. We now, are very leary of having gas and would consider changing to electric, if it is even possible the way our homes are built.
