Lightning vs. Chimney—Guess Who Won? ⚡🏚️

This chimney took a direct hit from lightning, and the result is a massive hole blown straight through the brick. The sheer force and heat of a lightning strike can cause bricks to explode, mortar to crack, and even lead to serious structural damage. If your chimney has been struck, don’t ignore it—get it inspected and repaired before leaks or collapse make things worse! Stay safe out there.
