episode_narrativeScattered thunderstorms with abundant cloud-to-ground lightning struck different sections of Fairfax Co during the evening, causing several instances of damage. In Falls Church, a large oak tree was split by a strike, with limbs crushing a fence and falling onto two sedans. Later that evening, direct strikes in southern Fairfax Co caused four separate fires. The strikes included: two strikes to roofs of single-family homes, one to the roof of a garden apartment, and another to a shed. One of the fires, in the Groveton area, damaged the second floor, rendering the home temporarily uninhabitable. The other single-family house fire caused damage to the attic.
