A lightning bolt would explode the glass window before it would travel through the glass. Storm lightning is so fast that even if it were to go thru a window the window would shatter from the heat and speed. Glass is not a conductor so, being struck by lightning thru the window would take the Glass to shatter which would take two strikes. Other following ways are the only ways lighting can strike into a home. -Lightning can enter the home thru any of the 3 following ways. (1) a direct strike (2) through wires or pipes that extend outside the structure (3) through the ground. Regardless of the method of entrance, once in a structure, the lightning can travel through the electrical, phone, plumbing, and radio/television reception systems. Lightning can also travel through any metal wires or bars in concrete walls or flooring. Avoid contact with concrete walls which may contain metal reinforcing bars. Avoid washers and dryers since they not only have contacts with the plumbing and electrical systems, but also contain an electrical path to the outside through the dryer vent.
