we were sitting here
Holy Crap BANG (not a motor/car) Treebangthere was a wire around the tree (where the burn stops) that went to a beam on the patio we could see the burn marks around the bolt that held it to the post. My sister in law was sitting right there ( the gal in the yellow shirt, she is standing where the wire attached to the house and where she was sitting. Don't think it hit here directly but her arm felt real funny. froze a couple of brakers in there panel box blew out there back yard light.
It wasn't the tallest tree around but we or I figgured it was because of the wire around it that it was struck..
Take care
