Heavy thunderstorm causes lightning damage in Parma; citizens are hit; fields and vineyards also devastated

Text originalOriginal text

Die 4 giugno giobia circa vespero, arduo tempo, venti grandi e contrarij con troni e lampegij, piogia e tempesta insieme in Parma, e la saetta celeste percosi ne la tore comune dove già ancora percosi, e dirupe una parte ex merlis dicte turis et in volta fenestre, et funem seu catenellam eneam, que erat ad tintinella, usque ad fenestras domus potestatis; et plures homines qui erant in platea ivi justa portam domus potestatis ceciderunt in terram tacti timore sagitte, et quasi mortui fuerunt portati ad domos suas, et steterunt ita exteriti tota ipse die; et tempestas valde grande damnum fecit in civitate et circa forte per unum miliarium in blavas et vineas.
