I have had several hits over the past 15 years here at the N1UR QTH.  2
direct tower hits and 2 proximity events.  Its not a matter of if, but when,
on the next one.  I have found that with coax, rotor cable, and many control
cables disconnected, the damage is less to not occurring for proximity.
Power off on all external systems.  But with a direct hit, stuff jumps,
connected directly or not.  Its part of the game in my opinion.
