| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A weak upper air disturbance combined with an unseasonably hot and humid air mass to trigger pulse type thunderstorms during the afternoon of the 10th in Delaware. In addition to being prolific cloud-to-ground lightning producers, a couple of thunderstorms also became severe. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | A lightning strike quickly caused a fire at a house on Avalon Road in Georgetown. When firefighters from five separate companies arrived, the rear of the home was already engulfed in flames and the fire had extended to a nearby storage shed. Two people were home at the time of the lightning strike and escaped before being injured. Damage to the home was estimated at $300,000. |
