Weather
We were in the terminal area deviating around some small isolated thunderstorms.  We were descending down to 11;000 FT. When passing through 13;000 FT; we were struck by lightning.  We saw a flash of light.  I saw sparks fly out of the overhead circuit breaker panel.  I saw a bolt come down from the right side of the panel and connect with my co-pilot's headset.  We immediately noticed 2 CBs pop; and smelled a burnt odor.  We also noticed burn marks on various parts of the overhead CB panel. After we were struck; there was no sign of smoke or fire.  Everything seemed to operate normally except for the burnt smell and an indication showing that the wing anti-ice was ON.  One of the two breakers popped was the wing anti-ice breaker.  My co-pilot [notified ATC] and we got immediate vectors for the ILS. I briefed the flight attendant on our [urgent] situation and she briefed the passengers. The remainder of the flight was uneventful.  With what I saw on my radar screen; I didn't think there was a concern with where we were choosing to deviate around the weather and I didn't think we could have done anything more to avoid the lightning strike or the weather.
