Hurricanes don't usually produce much lightning.

My memories are from Virginia - and the thunderstorms before and after a hurricane were always very, very impressive.

This was one of the things that made Agnes so interesting to a child - it rained for days, but only rarely was there any lightning, so we could all play outside in the downpours, and watch the flooding first hand at the local creeks.

Generally, these are just first hand impressions describing personal experience.
