Showers Cut Heat With Lightning Destroys Homer Store Light
Heavy showers ending a scorching heat wave brought relief as lightning caused minor damage at the A. H. Homer Grocery Store at West Main and Fifth Avenue. A chandelier, wiring, and insulation were burned but a metal ceiling prevented fire spread. Damage estimated at 5 to 10 dollars. A lightning strike also blew a fuse, briefly cutting electrical service. Temperatures rose to around 90 to 92 degrees, with some sun readings over 100. Night temps cooled to about 65, with some scattered showers and forecast more comfortable conditions.
