A 40-year-old man indirectly struck by lightning Friday night at the Adams County Fairgrounds is recovering from second- and third-degree burns.
Chip Wiman was standing under a tree during a weather delay for his daughter’s track meet when lightning hit. “I was leaning against a tree and ‘Kaboom!’ ” he said. “I remember laying there thinking I had my legs blown off.”
The lightning traveled through the tree and up through the ground, using Wiman as a conductor, Adams County Fire said.
