Lightening in the middle of the night

Last night I must have slept really deep.
Several friends told this morning how they
had stayed up because of the thunder,
the lightening and the heavy rain.
I did not hear anything.

One house in Moss was probably hit by
lightening and a fire broke out.
Fortunately for the owners they were away
on holiday. Nobody home.
Unfortunately for them, they must now return
from their holiday to face the practical, emotional
and financial problems caused by this fire.

I could not help ponder for a moment what
would have happened if the lightening had
hit my house.
Wooden houses....
Second floor.....

Here is a series of photos from this fire in the
net version of the local newspaper Moss Avis.
