House Fire in Woodvale

Another tragic event for our subdivision.  A house fire occurred about 9:30 to 10:00 pm or so following a thunderstorm with very intense lightning.  The thunderstorm dropped over an inch of rain on the area and was the only thunderstorm in Central Alabama for a couple of hours this evening.

The pictures below are just a couple of shots I made with my phone so they are not very good.  The Helena Fire Department responded as soon as the fire was reported and one of my neighbors noted that flames were shooting over 80 feet into the air at one point.

The house on Woodvale Road was not occupied at the time.
