Could be one of three reasons 1/ if you have an outside aerial possible lightning strike if you have VCR or DVD attached to same aerial and they still work discount this . If they too no longer function strike most likely.

2/ you didn't say TV model it was but could have been a relay station hit by lightning causing a power spike,

3 / Pure coincidence and the Power supply has broken down, if you noticed the tv taking longer to come on each time could be caps.

if you are not completely electronic literate seek the help of a qualified engineer .

Sharp LC-32lb261u TV no longer works after a thunderstorm. If I unplug it & then plug it right back in, I get several random flashes of the red power light.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Actually the LED flashes indicates a code. Could you provide how many times it flashes and the pattern?

For example: 8 short 3 long or 7 flashes and repeats.

Should I replace my lamp for my Panasonic 1080i htd t.v. pt-50LC14

Replacing a lamp won't work. There is not even one lamp in your TV. I'm afraid the lightening has done more damage than can be repaired. Even when some tech manages to repair te error, the TV can have the next error in days or weeks.
Try reading something about ESD. Electro Static Discharge and what it does to electronics. Electrostatic discharge

An electrical pulse from the thunderstorm has affected your TV. (Was it on a surge protector?)

There is a small possibility that it will come back.

Unplug the television and let it sit for an hour or more and then re-plug it.

If you need to get a new TV, also get a good surge protector such as Panamax.

Power light flashes 4 times

The 4 blink code usually indicates a loss of vertical deflection. Check the solder connections on the vertical IC. If the connections are OK, replace the chip as it is defective. This chip will be a small flat IC with about 1 pins or so attached to a heatsink. It will be marked LA3847 or something similar.

Keep us posted.
