Default The best sound and light show that ive seen in years!

Do you or dont you like thunder storms????

Well last night was AWSOME .... for 3 - 4 hours solid i witnessed the best sound and light show that ive seen in years! Your discription of a bad storm would be an understatement for last nights extraviganza.

The thunger rolled continuously ... as one finished the next ane started rarely would there be a break in noise .... and the longest would have only been on seconds.

The lightning ... will it was all around us, and like the thunder the lightning was also continuous one straight after the other and im not talking little flashes.

Im takling at lease every 3 - 4 lightning strike would light up the ground as if it were daylight ... and everyother one was near blinding.

i could imagine it to be similar to sitting on the middle of ther largest bomb strike on Iraq ..... like massive explosions of light, 360 degrees, continuously .....

I LOVED IT!

I shutdown my PC and pulled all plugs at around 10 pm ish cos it was too risky to keep it turned on

Ahh, I don't know what you're making a big deal of, but it wasn't great. I have seen FAR better thunderstorms than that. Lots of light, hardly any noise, and the rain wasn't coming down that much either. There's been far better.

I like to go outside durring storms and watch them. A few times this has backfired on me. Once lightning struck a tree in my front yard, that rung my ears so bad I could'nt hear anything for a few minutes, gave me a bad headache to

I love to watch them to, the ones at night are the best.

You people wanting pictures must have no idea how hard it is to catch lightning on film!

No storm here. No fair. Apparently was supposed to come in at 8pm, I've heard nothing, but see the lightning in the distance.
