I've noticed every time there is a thunderstorm (not just regular rain), my es's start going up more than usual.
I keep a monitor on paper most days. My average during the day from about 10am until 0:30am is between 45 to 55 ES's. But if a thunderstorm comes around then the ES's in that same period can go up by 100 or 200 ES's. Then as the thunder storm settles the ES's slow down again.
Was copper lines always this susceptable to thunderstorms, or is it that we're just noticing the impact more as we're monitoring the line stats more closely these days?
I was under the impression fibre lines didn't suffer interference, so the interference that I'm talking about is coming from the copper line section?
