I am trying to find out more about the storms of this night which I remember as a child. The previous day (7th) was very hot, temperatures hovering around 32C, and in many places it was the hottest day of the year. Thunderstorms broke out overnight in the South and produced some long lived and spectacular lightning displays, which I remember watching for several hours.

Does anyone out there have any memories or stories of that stormy night?
