Much though I love it when it rains, thunders and generally is a miserable day outside, lightning storms can be fatal for computers and electrical equipment. I think I like storms because, as a kid, it meant that I had a legitimate reason to stay inside and play rather than running around outside getting hot and sweaty.
At the sound of thunder, I recommend unplugging, from the wall sockets the connections to power and cabling. I've known modems and computers to be reset, at best, destroyed, at worst by a nearby lightninng strike at there's very little that can be done to bring a fried computer back to life.
