Just curious, why is the shop off limits when thunder rolls?

 

[davek]

Just started to rain here, back to the house. Was cleaning my front bumper brackets for paint.

 

[beanhead]

Making me jealous! We've had short morning T-storms that brought us rain for about 3 minutes, the last two Tuesdays...only weather besides hot since oh I don't know late April maybe...other than that it's 100-degree business as usual out here. Actually today is only mid-90s, we're gettin' there!

Of course the title made me think you meant,

i'm on high ground surrounded with tall trees, in a well grounded metal building full of steel.......this place is a bullseye for lightening bolts...... I've learned to unplug and disconnect the router in the shop; I've had the house modem and shop router fry more than once

That doesn't happen on fibre.

That makes your shop a Faraday Cage....you should be safe until the power fails.

[eldubb440]

the house I was in when I was little had lightning rods on the roof..... something you never see anymore,

 

[moparwacko]

Sooooo.... that means more time for the honey-do list.

 

[eldubb440]

Hope you and Rebel are ok.

everyone is fine..... we just respect the lightning

 

[eldubb440]

Sooooo.... that means more time for the honey-do list.

that list is currently outdoor stuff.....so I get women's rugby

 

[beanhead]

Ehh suck it up, you'll be fine...

[eldubb440]

these lines of storms usually move east to west and clear in about an hour..... I believe the term for this particular line is "training", when it moves in the direction of the line
