| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Lightning caused several problems in the town of Plymouth during Monday evening, June 27. Lightning struck and ignited a fire that completely destroyed a 24- by 30-foot wooden barn in Plymouth causing an estimated $60,000 in damage. Firefighters were able to prevent an attached home from suffering significant damage. The Plymouth town hall was also struck and damaged. Slate shingles and bricks from the roof and spire were blown onto the sidewalk below, and the lightning strike left a 4-foot crack in the brick structure. A considerable amount of communications and other electronic equipment inside the building was also damaged or destroyed by the lightning strike. Total damage to the building and electronic equipment was estimated to be about $50,000. Also in Plymouth, a woman was struck and injured when lightning followed the well line into the basement of her home and along the concrete floor to where she was standing. She was taken to a nearby hospital for a treatment and then released. |
