Question: in a clear sky can you have a lighting strike?



I was on FO-20 with the antenna's about 67 degrees elevation and I hear a
"pop" and then the SWR went real high and I lost the bird. I quickly looked
around and saw that my lighting protection had blown! Then I switched to the
2m-ssb antennas and reacquired the bird and worked wb9cns. I'm still
clueless I have no idea what could had happened to cause the ICE lighting
protection to blow.

Any suggestions?
