Our Iconic Merlion struck by Lightning on 27 Feb 2009

Did you notice that the thunderstorms in the past few afternoons have been very severe?

Lightning flashes and claps of thunder occurred almost every afternoon. The heavy thunderstorms started to ease in the early evening.

In the late afternoon of 27 Feb 2009, our iconic Merlion was struck by lightning. Luckily it was just a relatively small "chip" gone and nobody was hurt in the news report.
