Lightning strikes on Southern Oregon coast

COOS BAY, Ore. (AP) - On the Southern Oregon coast, last weekend’s winter storm included lightning strikes that damaged two houses.

The World (https://bit.ly/1iJmAFr ) newspaper reports that the police and fire departments in North Bend got calls about five different lightning strikes Saturday afternoon. At one house, a screen door and an upstairs window were blown out. At another, wallboard was scorched.

Though there were strong winds, less than a quarter inch of rain was recorded locally.
