For those getting the heavy thunderstorms... advice. houston

Turn your A/C OFF and if you have expensive electronic equipment that's not plugged into a UPS, UNPLUG it.

Computers frequently get burned-up power supplies when surges come in from lightning.

Brown-outs (120 VAC dropping to 40 or 60 volts due to malfunctions caused by lightning) can destroy any motorized devices, like air conditioners. Even refrigerators can fall victim, but hell, I ain't unplugging mine.
