DOWN CAME THE "CEILING FANS"

It was looking bad outside and the weather was giving a storm brewing. Crack goes the lighting. As one of our friends was in the kitchen down in Alb. she began hearing the sounds of the storm approching outside. All at once there was a loud bang. Then next thing she knew she was on the floor and her ceiling was on top of her. She did not know what had happened.
She began calling for her husband who was in the bedroom wanting help. He was lieing on the bed when he heard the loud sound. The ceiling fan in the room came down and landed on the bed. It did not hit him or kill him. All of the ceiling was laying on the bed. He did not know what in the world had happened.
He began calling for his wife. So amist all the rubble he made it to the kitchen to check on her. They were both save thanks to God.
What had happened was lighting had hit the roof of their house. As the ceiling was sheetrock, I don't know if it was nailed in or screwed in but when the lighting hit the top of the house it made all of the screws or nails to come loose from the sheetrock and all of it fell.
I have never heard anything like this. But it did happen. You would think that nails or screws that was deep in the wood would hold anything and as I have hung plenty of sheetrock myself I know how hard it is to nail or screw it in. It must have burned the nails or screws into.
As most of us have ceiling fans in the bedrooms about our beds I am sure thinking about getting rid of mine after this happened. They have just got all of the mess cleaned back up. They had to move out of their house for so many months until it was all fixed back over. Just like rebuilding a home. Had to put on a new roof and fix all the walls and ceilings. I don't know if the cabinets fell or not.
With the weather changing so much, even here in the mountains, we have saw a big change in the weather pattern. It makes you afraid because you do not know what is going to happen next.
Last summer we had hail bigger than golf ball size. We have had tornadoes when there has never been anything like this close around. I am so glad the Lord spared our friends lives.
