I never can, though that might be partly because they generally occur on
muggy nights where it's hard to drop off anyway.

There was a bad thunderstorm at Bournemouth in August 2002. I was there
on holiday, when the TS came over the thunder caused me to go into type
of sleep were I could half hear the thunder and rain hitting the
windows, I dreamt about cannons and water !
