05/24/13 67 W, 1 I - + 5 - 1 Tree That Was Struck by Lightning

Here's something that you don't see every day, a tree that was struck by lightning at the scene of a structure fire. The lightning strike also started the two-alarm apartment fire on Calumet on Tuesday. See more photos from the scene from Lee Wilson, as well the shots by Mike Legeros. Read prior posting about the incident.

After being blown back into my house when lightning struck a tree just off the porch, I have no desire to be anywhere near a lightning strike. Ugh.
