Each blade is 6 tons and costs millions. I certainly wouldn't want to be manning the crane on such a windy day!!!

lightning rod?
They might have to place it pretty high, but it might decrease the need of structural/blade repairs

There is a lightning diverter system in most modern blades.... The receiver is located in the tip of the blade and is connected to the ground via a cable that has been build into the blade
