In northwest Ohio about an hour east of Fort Wayne, fire officials posted photos of a tree burning from the inside out after a lightning strike. A post at the Ridgeville Township Volunteer Fire Department Facebook page says they were called out to a tree on fire earlier this week and had a tough time getting to every hot spot in the trunk. They said a tree service came out to help cut down the tree so fire crews could fully extinguish the fire.
