The Strike!

First of all, I'm sorry it took me so long to get this up on the blog. I was hoping to get it up yesterday but I was out of town for the day and then school got in the way last night and...I'll stop firing excuses at you now. Enjoy the video!



This is slow motion video (shot by Newswatch Videographer Steve Guthrie) of what is likely the lightning strike that destroyed the Woodarts building on Chemong Rd on Tuesday. The location, timing and intensity of the strike all fit with the start of the fire. Luckily no one was hurt so I can say this...what a great video! You can actually count the return strokes! This really illustrates the power of Mother Nature.
