Do radio antennas get struck by lightning?
Yes, radio antennae do get struck by lightning. This possibility does not mean that lightning is attracted to it especially. Lightning is not attracted to anything in particular, but you are warned to stay away from high things and conductors like water and metal. If you are near a conductor, you could end up getting hurt since lightning travels fast. If you are near a tall thing, like a tree, if it gets struck, it could catch fire or fall over on you. I suggest if you aren't in a building the safest place to be would be a car.

Does lightning ever strike the same place twice?
Yes it can. Tall buidings have lightning conductors which are hit several times every year. It is estimated that there are 8,000,000 lightning strikes every day. Not only does it hit the same place more than once, several people have been hit more than once.Sometimes in Florida where they have a lot of lightning and they have tree nurseries They have trees called lightning trees. These trees don't get sold they are there because they have been struck by lightning before which means they are one of the tallest trees in the grove they are there so they can attract lightning so the lightning doesn't strike other trees. So if your out in an open field every time when it is raining and lightning is going on too, you may get struck more than once.It can and often has.
