I guess I'm concerned about the wire that's inside my listening

the event of a storm? Could I get an electrical discharge inside my
house from the 20 feet of wire that is stretched outside?

While NOTHING can stop a direct lightning hit, dangling the indoor end of your
antenna inside a thick glass jar should allow static discharge spitzensparken
to be harmlessly expended.
