Thunderstorms are weird things. I can remember 100+ degree days and a hail storm coming through and dumping several inches of bb sizes hail and suddenly it was cold outside. The hail took overnight to melt, and still had drifts in places in the morning.
The reverse can be true. I remember one evening it was a pleasant mid 70s degrees. The sun was down, and a thunderstorm just collapsed over my area of town. Suddenly it was 100+ degrees outside.
It is mind boggling how much energy those huge temperature changes required. All provided by the power of the sun.
