Lived in Florida since like 2018. No problems with lightning other than the occasional power loss. Now twice in a month it's destroyed the Spectrum router.

The storm was bad enough, and the strikes close enough, that my neighbor lady ran outside at 3:30 AM to make sure nothing caught fire or exploded. It vibrated the walls of my house to the point that it woke the girlfriend and I up.

It took out the Spectrum modem, router, a/v receiver, and Xbox. All in the same general area of my basement. No burning, melting, or scorching. Didn't even trip the breaker. My OLED and desktop survived unscathed, at least.
