Sizzling

If lightning hits really close to you, you will hear a sizzle before the thunder. The last time I heard that sound the neighbor's car was fried and my modem was, too.

I just heard it again while upstairs near an open window. I am going offline, just in case....but it's probably like shutting the barn door after the horse is loose. Or is it cow?

Anyway, when it hits that close surge protectors really aren't very useful. I found that out. Besides, I will probably be busy watching fire trucks pretty soon.

They won't prevent damage to your computer, but it makes it easier for us to identify the body. We trace the serial numbers.
