Sussex experienced a day of extreme weather yesterday (June 25) as a heat wave brought soaring temperatures to the south coast.
As the day became hotter, more humid and a little bit sticky, the Met Office warned thunderstorms could hit the county.
While many residents were spared torrential downpours, this video shows a dramatic lightning display lit up the night's sky.
