We had a few thunder storms here yesterday. Rain is a usual event this time of year. Everyone talks about Seattle being a rainy region but I know we have them beat. They may have more rainy days, but when we have rain, we have rain. In addition to the rain, we have the lightening and thundering. Last year, I lost two computers, a desk top and a lap top within three weeks due to lightening strikes. Needless to say, at the first sound of thunder, I now unplug my computer. Do not rely on power strips. They don't work. You need a surge strip. They are quite expensive, but less than replacing a computer. Still, unplug the darn thing when the storms come. Turning it off won't work. You need to remove it from the power source.
