When we have or are likely to have thunder storms, I not only don't use my sewing machine or computer, I unplug them from the power strips.
Am I overly cautious? I didn't get much done today!
I've got a cheap sewing machine so I don't worry about it. But I do unplug my computer. the only problem is that there's a dish kinda thing on my roof for my internet connection so if the house gets hit the computer is probably toast too.
