Brevard Fire Rescue Responded to Four Homes Struck by Lightning Causing Damage from Small Fires

Special shout out to the BCFR communications center for their ability to juggle multiple calls

SEVERE WEATHER BRINGS HEAVY RAIN, LIGHTNING

BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – It was one of those afternoons that we had to use four of the eight TAC channels at the same time due to weather-related calls.

Brevard County Fire Rescue had four lightning strikes to structures resulting in damage from small fires to damaged shingles and electronics.

A special shout out to our communications center for their ability to juggle multiple calls in a short period of time. True heroes.

Thanks to an alert neighbor for climbing to the roof of the home with a garden hose, preventing further extension into the attic.
