This was Wednesday May 27th around 6pm.

Madawaska High School junior Carl Bouley captured the strike, one he saw before:

“In 2007, on my birthday, it was hit by lightning, too,” Bouley told the Bangor Daily News. “When I saw the conditions with the atmosphere were the same yesterday, I figured, ‘Why not try to record it [and] if it happens, it happens.’”

The paper says the 2007 lightning strike was much worse, costing $35,000 in damage.  The one in the video above only blew out three light bulbs.
