Twitter is lighting up with photos taken by people driving (or sitting in traffic) in Wellesley during Wednesday’s rain/thunderstorms.

Meanwhile, Wellesley emergency crews have responded to issues such as this tree, struck by lightning, falling on a car on Audubon Road. As well as to a lightning strike at a home on Benvenue Street, as seen here and on the Wellesley PD photo website.
