Today was a frustrating day! We had a lot of storms in the area - it was very dark, thunder, eventually we had hail and heavy rain.
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!

Continue to unplug.
After my experience this summer "blowing up" two power bars when we had power surges, I'm a lot more careful too. The two power bars blew out to the point of bending out the back of the bar and charring the shelf they were on!
