3 定从句式分析where的用法

The Greenwood fire took its name from the nearby lake where lightning struck on 15 August, 2021, causing a wildfire that burned for weeks.

请教各位老师,这个句子中的where是否可以用that which替换?strike貌似是一个及物动词,可以直接跟strike the lake?。用where是把lake当成地点状语,若用介词+which替换,可以换成什么呢?

我理解这里的where 不能替换为that/which. 因为雷电击中的不是湖,(湖里有水,也不会发生火灾),而是击中了湖附近的树木引起的火灾。如果一定要用介词短语结构代替where,我看可以说:...the nearby lake in the vicinity of which lightning struck on 15 August... 问题句中的struck在这里应该看作不及物动词。

我在网上搜索了一些相关背景知识,供参考。

A lightning bolt reaches down to the ground, hits a tree and starts a fire.

Now hold that thought — until Thanksgiving.

That's about what happened last August, when a storm touched off the Greenwood Fire, named for nearby Greenwood Lake, about 20 miles northwest of Silver Bay. Monday marks the first anniversary of when the fire was first spotted.
