Fire crews investigated a report of a lightning strike at a wind turbine in Pannal this afternoon.
Crews from Harrogate and Wetherby attended the incident at Pannal Green at 2.27pm.
According a North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue incident log, the crew stood by while a turbine engineer investigated the fusebox.

No other fire found inside premises after investigation with the fusebox believed to have done its job and preventing further damage following the strike.
It comes as the Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for thunderstorms this afternoon.
