– It came out of nowhere completely. It was a huge explosion, said one of the residents of the house.

They don’t want to put up with names in the newspaper, but report that they are doing well.

The lightning struck two places on the ceiling and cleared the stone from the ceiling.

It is very special because the lightning map of the Meteorological Institute shows that the lightning in Nattlandsrinden is the only one in the entire Nordic region tonight.

– This is the ultimate bad luck, says state meteorologist Kristin Seter in Vêrvarslinga, western Norway.

It’s possible that some lightning might escape the observing network, but Seter explains that the map tends to be reliable.

– Have you heard of something similar before?

– This happens from time to time, but generally when there is damage related to lightning, there are many lightning strikes. Lightning in an area as densely populated as Bergen still has a higher chance of causing damage than, for example, on the plateau, he says.

All fuses blown

City police said the roof had two holes about half a meter in diameter.

Naudetatane was in town at 6:10 pm The residents had already left the house by then. They should also consult with city health personnel.

– All fuses in the fuse box are disconnected. We’ve had smoke divers inside, said Service Commander Sigurd Hadeland at the 110th exchange.

Not habitable tonight

There was smoke development in the house due to the lightning strike, but firefighters quickly gained control and luckily it did not develop into a fire.

BKK will now have a review of the electrical system of the house and some surrounding houses because it smells of burning.

When BT spoke with residents, they were already helping to investigate the damage to the electrical system and help them regain power.

The city police claim that it will not be possible to live in the house at night.
