UPDATE on house fire in Valley Station/PRP this morning.
I was able to talk to the homeowner this afternoon. He was in his basement this morning when lightning had struck a tree in the back yard. It appears that lightning severed a large limb from the tree which then landed on parts of the house. However, it does appear that lightning may have struck the tree first, then forked and struck the garage roof, which then caused a fire in the attic. Obviously, the fire quickly spread from there and soon engulfed most of the residence.
Derrick, the homeowner, did grant me permission to post pics onto my blog. I will be posting those tomorrow.
Just in case, have those weather radios ready. Hopefully, the storms will weaken as loss of daylight should minimize the energy for severe weather.
