Scary moment at church tonight
Posted: Sun Jun 20, 2004 7:10 pm
A scary moment happened at church tonight and it happened not even an hour ago... probably around 7:30pm eastern.
A potent thunderstorm rolled through {believe it or not no warning was issued} and a lightning strike hit very close to the church building.
Seconds later.. the power went out. On my way home... I took a peak at a tree on church property.. It looked like it had a burn mark down by it's base.. I think it got hit by lightning..
The storm itself I believe is gone.. But there is still VERY loud thunder and multiple cloud to ground lightning strikes..
Everyone at church was OK.. Just a little puzzled about the brief outage
