That is a bummer, Don. Lightning can make its way throughout the house by
various evil means. A few years ago a strike hit a tree across the street,
traveled across the crown of nearby trees to our roof, thence into the
house wiring and fried a TV set, the lawn-sprinkler system, the microwave,
the sound card in my son's laptop, the display on my FT-1000MP, and my
2M/440 base-station radio. If it wants to get you, it will. Good luck
getting things back to normal.
