Bolts of lightning hit the US Capitol and Empire State Building on the final day of 2024, fueling social media buzz

On the last day of 2024, a series of lightning bolts struck the US Capitol Building and Washington Monument in D.C., as well as the Empire State Building and One World Trade Center in New York City, according to multiple videos posted online.
The strikes, occurring amid heavy rain along the East Coast, coincided with New Year celebrations and quickly sparked widespread speculation on social media, with some commenters suggesting it could be a symbolic sign.
This comes as US President Joe Biden prepares to leave office and Donald Trump is set to return to the White House on January 20.
Utah Senator Mike Lee shared a video of the Capitol strike, writing, “Feels like an omen. What’s it telling us?”
Pamela Hensley, a conservative commentator with over 186,000 followers on X, echoed that sentiment, writing, “This is a good indication that the Lord Almighty wants the Biden Administration to leave.”
Tricia Flanagan, a Republican politician from New Jersey, wrote, “The Capitol is struck by lightning, Washington Monument right after & thunder roars… all as 2025 is ushered in. It’s going to be Biblical.”
Another user, Sovereign Brah, suggested it “Feels like an omen. I wonder what God is telling us.”
Lightning frequently targets tall structures. For instance, the Empire State Building’s antenna is struck by lightning an average of 25 times per year, according to its website.

Martin comments: Seems like an obvious suggestion to me, but, WEATHER MOD? Is this not a “message from God” but a stunt by the CCP possibly? In the wake of the drone invasions and mystery fogs, it would make sense, yes?
