That depends how bad the storm is, really. If it's very close to you, really you need to be off a computer and showers and such. If it's kinda far off, stay on 'til it starts developing if it does. My computer has a stopper on it, so if the power goes out it won't fry my comp, just the stopper (D:) |

Funny you ask because a friend of mine had his motherboard zapped to oblivion by a lighting strike. A surge protector should protect you from electrical surges, but against lighting? Who knows. |

Well I have a surge protect thingy...and the "storm" is basically a bit of thunder and light rain really...I just wanna know so if it starts getting bad >_< |
