Lightning creates fire damage in Lantana, TX

Sometimes lightning strikes homes and starts a fire, creating fire damage. When putting out the fire, the fire department can also create water damage in less affected parts of the home. This is a much more common situation than most people realize. This home in Lantana, TX is a prime example of this situation. Lantana is known for the high amount of lightning that strikes houses in the area. Fire Chief Mac Hohenberger of the Argyle Fire department states, "It is not known why lightning tends to strike these houses more than others in the area, but we are continually investigating these cases to try to find a reason."
