No rain but lots of lightning flashed about Tuesday afternoon and this shed on the property of Catherine Lillard near Washington was struck. The bolt struck a fence between the Lillard property and Hampton Inn and then jumped to the building. Charlie James who was working on the wooden gate for Gibson Wharton received some of the impact. His hands and arms were numb for a few minutes. However, be was able to grab a bucket of water and extinguish the blaze before Washington and Sperryville fire companies arrived.
