Can lightning strike through a window of my house?

Question

If it can go through the window can it strike a person?

Answer 1

Not likely, unless the window is wide open--but then, what is 'grounding' the bolt? Indoors, you're safe.

Answer 2

Yes it can.  It won't "strike" the glass, but could go through the glass to another electrical object.  The link below gives you some information on lightning.
