{{#seo:

|keywords=Stardew Valley Wiki, Stardew Valley, Lightning Rod, gift |site_name=Stardew Valley Wiki |type=article |title=Lightning Rod - Stardew Valley Wiki }} The Lightning Rod creates a Template:ItemLink 24 hours after getting hit by lightning during a storm.

The exact placement of the rod on The Farm has no bearing on the chance to intercept a lightning strike, rods do not protect a specific area.

As of patch 1.07: Lightning is more likely to strike trees and crops, but a Lightning Rod now has a very good chance of intercepting lightning strikes (if they aren't already processing a lightning bolt)
