Thunderstorms

[88Mariner]

I love thunderstorms. Does anyone else here like them as much as I do? I hear thunderstorms approaching in the distance.

Discuss.

(also, i'll sometimes play this mp3 file from simplynoise.com in the background as I do work).

yes living in florida for 25 years and being used to them, when I lived in vegas for two years and never seen rain. after coming back to florida we truly missed them love how the sky turns dark black and the loud thunder bright flash of lightning it is something else

Re: Thunderstorms

oh for sure...it was like living in a drought in California, nauseating blue skies and sunshine every day! lol

When the occasional thunder storm did appear and I stress "occasional" it would echo off the mountains, and didn't even sound the same as the thunder storms in my hometown in Florida...

One thing I've noticed since being back from 10 years in Cali is that it most definitely rains a lot less here in Florida.

Well it finally made its way down here, and a nice thunderstorm it is! Some mega-lightening...If I had a real nice nikon d90, I'd be taking photos over our lake right now...

Yep it's kicking over her in the N.S.B. area right now. I do love them but I hate going out in them. I've lived here all my life and I haven't noticed that it's rained less. But then again I am on the coast and we do tend to get those cross breezes that stir up the storms more (or so it seems).

Re: Thunderstorms

Oh boy do I ever. Went river roading yesterday with some nice flooding and thunderstorms going on. Nothing quite beats seeing nature take over for a bit.

^I like that, good way of putting it... as long as it's not lethal of course.

I just remember it raining for days at a time growing up here, and it getting pitch black outside several times a year from epic storms... the past 2 years inclement weather has been sparse imo, then again I wasn't here for those hurricanes 3-4 years ago.

Re: Thunderstorms

i've always been mystified by them, and there's few things i cherish more than a rolling thunderstorm... ...just something about them. will post my full thoughts and stories later.
