Lightning Hits House In Milford

November 23, 2014

(Milford)– Strong thunderstorms rumbled through the area Wednesday evening producing heavy rain and intense lightning. There were no reports of severe weather, however, and no warnings were issued.

In Milford, a house owned by Dan Johanson at 1112 16th Street was hit by lightning shortly after 9:00 p.m. Fire Chief Don Eckard says there was no fire, but the jolt caused some damage…blowing some brick out of the home’s foundation and a thermostat was blown out of a wall. The Johansons were home at the time, but no injuries were reported.

1.64 inches of rain fell at the KUOO studios.
