re: Where did the false concept of “heat lightning” come from?

Huh, guess I learn something new everyday.
As to why, where I grew up we had 1 tv with 3 channels. We weren't close to anywhere.
We would see the sky turning black, turn on the TV/radio, not a word mentioned about it. Storm would roll through and the sky would clear before we would hear- seek shelter from this dangerous storm!
The old timers that told me about heat lightning were the same ones telling me when to start looking for arrowheads when plowing fields.
Figured they knew everything.
