My boyfriend, that is not from this area, cannot get it through his head that when it's lightning, get inside. We had a Pine tree just about fifty feet from our house get hit. Ran all the way down this 100 ft. tree, and ran into the ground another twenty or thirty feet, creating an eight inch deep ditch. My prayers for this family. People, when you hear thunder, please get somewhere safe. So sad. My boyfriend, that is not from this area, cannot get it through his head that when it’s lightning, get inside.
