NW Illinois Stephenson county | 25 to 30 years ago I was milking cows in the afternoon. A storm rolled in, I kept milking to try to get done if the power went out. This was in a double 4 herringbone parlor. I was prepping a cow and all of a sudden something pulsed through the cows and me for a second or 2. We all stiffened up and then were released. Apparently the cows did not blame me for it so I kept milking and they were as calm as before the hit. I never did find the place the lightning hit. No electrical problems like when another strike hit years before and electrical problems plagued several motors and controls over the next few months. |
Lightning strike?
