Ouch. We had a near hit about a year ago, took out the underground cable wire, cable modem, router, phone box, electric stove, garage door opener, my son's small TV, a radio, and damaged two 27" Sony TVs. One now pops loudly when turned on, the other has a small discolored spot in the corner. Insurance paid, so I figure I'll use them until they die.
When it hit, my brother in law, his girlfriend, and my sister in law were all in our basement. When it hit, they said the entire basement lit up. My sister in law was on her cell phone, plugged into the wall. It got hot enough that she had a blister on her cheek the next day. We were upstairs asleep, and with the screaming and the boom, I thought the damn house had exploded. Good times.
