Impact
The Impact of Lightning Strikes
The state of Florida, known as the “Lightning Capital of the United States,” has a warm and humid climate that makes it especially prone to thunderstorms and lightning activity. According to data from the Insurance Information Institute, Florida ranks as one of the states with the highest lightning-related insurance claims. In 2019 alone, 5759 lightning-related insurance claims were reported in Florida, resulting in an estimated $65 million in property damage.
Although lightning-related damage does not receive as much attention as other weather-related disasters, its impact must be recognized. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), lightning strikes cause more deaths yearly in the United States than tornadoes, hurricanes, or floods.

Protection
The Need for Lightning Protection
The implementation of lightning protection systems can significantly reduce the risk of adverse consequences to commercial properties, such as:
Business Interruption
Damage caused by lightning strikes and the need for repairs can disrupt business operations. This can result in lost revenue, customer dissatisfaction, and company reputation damage.
Risk of injury and personal safety
Lightning represents a tentative danger to the personal safety of employees and customers. If the building does not have adequate protection, occupants are at risk of severe injury or even death from lightning strikes during a thunderstorm.
Risk of fire
Lightning can cause fires in building structures, and, in the absence of adequate protection, such fires can spread and cause extensive property damage and endanger the lives of occupants.
Structural damage
Lightning can cause severe damage to a building’s structure, including fires, explosions, and damage to electrical, telecommunications, and electronic systems. Such damage can represent costly repairs and commercial downtime.
Loss of equipment and data
Sensitive electronic equipment such as computers, servers, security systems, and communications equipment can be damaged by lightning strikes. In addition to equipment replacement costs, there is a risk of loss of critical data, which can significantly impact business operations.
