[QUOTE="Obi-Wan, post: 491818, member: 709"] Came home last night and the wife said one of the trees was struck by lightning. The tree is about 3 feet from the propane tank and about 25' from the house. I am kind of surprised and very thankful the lightning went into the ground instead of arcking to the propane tank next to it. Now I am wondering how structurally damaged the tree is and if I should just cut it down. The tree has to be somewhere around 30 to 40 feet tall and am worried if the next wind storm might bring it down on the house. It's a big shade tree and I hate to lose it but I am dreading more the work that it is going to take to cut it down.
