Was out cultivating corn and my son was putting out liquid nitrogen about an hour ago. Clouds started looking bad and we both stopped. Walked in the house to pull up radar and he was sitting in his truck in front of his shop. Lightning struck and heard a loud pop in the house. Looked around and saw no trouble. Son called, said it struck his house and he smelled smoke. He had just got a call to take the forestry dozer to the mountains where lightning had started a fire. Said his house smelled like smoke and would I come check it. Blew the wires apart going to his phone and left a burn on a tile floor. Also fried a phone box.

Didn't get enough rain to wet top of ground. Anybody use lightning rods on their buildings? Richard
