WATCH: Lightning strikes church in Clonmel

APOCALYPTIC.

IT’S APOCALYPTIC OUT there at the moment. And that’s just with the rain and wind.

Add some lightning to the mix and it is genuinely terrifying.

The video of lightning striking St Mary’s Church in Clonmel was shot today by photographer and radio presenter Jonathan Ryan who runs TipperaryPhotos.com. Watch from seven seconds.
