event_narrativeLightning struck a large pine tree at a residence on the 2400 block of C Avenue NE. The lightning traveled down the tree and into the home, blowing out the water meter and fuse box. Two-thirds of the 100 foot tree, estimated at more than 75 years old, landed on the roof. The home sustained some damage. Tiles were blown off the bathroom wall and the siding was scorched by the lightning. Some appliances also stopped working. One tree limb pierced a hole in and dented the hood of a neighbor's truck. Other branches broke windows in nearby homes. The homeowner was quoted as saying "It sounded like a bomb going off, the tree just literally exploded." No one was hurt.
