Lightning strike damage at Cullman EMA to be repaired

Posted: Updated:
CULLMAN, AL (WBRC) -

Cullman emergency officials hope to have glitches caused by Tuesday storms fixed by today.

After lightning struck the Cullman EMA building, the agency lost phone lines and radio communications, not to mention hard drives to computers.  

The lightning strike also affected the water department since they are based out of the same building.

City officials say cell phones and air cards help them maintain operations; it just takes a little more manpower.
