B.A.Longhaual a/c multiple lightning strikes.

Does BA aircraft weather radar direct B747 and B777 to lightning?
After yesterdays terrible weather BA have at least 11 aircraft on the ground with multiple lightning strikes.I thought flight crew were trained to avoid lightning but I suppose some of the lightning was unavoidable.1 a/c had a direct hit on the windscreen,I bet that was scary for the crew! Brave people indeed.
