There is massive amounts of iron rock in the ground in that area that attracts lightning real bad.

We learned the hard way,we lost a computer and phone. We had to fight with !!!!!!! to get them to ground our phone line and just for extra protection any time we leave for the day we unplug computer. If we are home and it starts storming we unplug it. Like yesterday we saw how bad it was getting and unplugged it. When lighting was striking it was hitting pretty bad and then the phone went out as did the internet. Finally got both back this am. Sorry about your computer.
