metal pipe high tunnelsGood point Paul.  I'd be tempted to put a lightning 
rod on each end.  Then you wouldn't have to worry about it.

Subject: [Market-farming] metal pipe high tunnels


Hi all,
 I am currently setting up a nice big high tunnel.  I positioned this thing 
on top of a knoll that I leveled out.  From the degree of my sunburn 
yesterday, I know that it will get good sun exposure on top of this knoll. 
But now I am wondering if this thing will be a nice lightning target.  Has 
anyone ever seen evidence of a lightning strike to a pipe frame greenhouse?
