Is it very important to remove tv aerials during a storm? I'm sure this has been asked before but I've been debating with a neighbour since having a bad storm last night.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Do you mean by remove, to disconnect? It is usually recommended that you pull the aerial lead out of the TV set during an electrical storm, just to be prudent I would remove the power lead from the socket as well. Also the phone lead if you are connected (Sky).
Same goes for computers - lightening can send a power surge along phone/power lines.
