    LIGHTNING STRUCK THE CITY LAST


    NIGHT

    Lightning struck twice by our house last night


    during a rainstorm. One flash of lightning hit at 9:10, and
    the second hit at 9:20. We heard the sound of thunder and
    we smelled the lightning in the air.
    The first flash struck our neighbour’s chimney. The
    chimney was very tall, and it acted like a lightning rod. It
    pulled the lightning to it. When the lightning struck, it tore
    out a whole row of bricks. Our neighbours said that it sounded like glass was breaking when the
    bricks fell.
    The second flash hit another neighbour’s tree. It tore the bark off the tree. Because it was
    raining, the tree didn’t start to burn. However, our neighbour said that the lightning killed the tree.
    We were lucky. The lightning missed our house. And we were all happy that nobody was
    hurt.
