Video: Incredible footage of lightning striking the ground in this Dublin college

Wow.

The Irish weather can be unpredictable at the best of times, however, we're usually well prepared for most conditions. Rain, snow, wind and sun are usually the norm around the country though which is why we were quite surprised to see this clip of a lightning fork hitting the ground at the Institute of Technology Blanchardstown. Students beware, this is what happens when you leave the library during the exam period. Take a look. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIbbTl8l6x4 Clip via - ITB Dublin It seems that the lightning is also causing havoc with Luas users in Dublin. https://twitter.com/Luas/status/600699922879479808
