I suspect it is caused by some type of interference related to the lightning.

Surely it was!
What is the cable length between the rain gauge and the TX unit? The longer the cable the greater the possibilities of interferences caused by close thunderstorms.
Increasing the "debounce" time, as referred by laulau may help, as it in fact allows to control the minimum allowed time between each rain tip.
But before going into this way, check if its possible to shorten the cable length.
