Yeah, I agree with you! Laying in bed while listening to thunder and seeing lightning flashes is sleeping weather for me!

Omg! Me too! It made me jump and my heart nearly stopped!

I live in wales, UK and some of the storms we have had in late august right through to the end of september were amazing to see, i live on the seafront and i have never seen the sea looking so violent in my life

You should experience the ones on one of the Greek Islands. They have these screaming winds with thunder and lightning, and you'd think it's the end of the world. They're called Meltamias, and they usually start in late August or September and go on and off, but they simmer down once the main front passes through. You'll know when they're about to happen, because it's totally still, and the temperature is around 90-95 DG. F, and the humidity builds over several days. At night, it gets down to about 75 to 70, but when they're around the corner, you still don't know it until: the winds start right as the clouds come boiling through the sky, and you hear the winds screaming. Then, the lightning and thunder, then the downpour, and the temperatures drop about 30 to 35 degrees in only a couple of hours if that. From what my God Mother told me, the storms continue to happen over the next 2 to 3 days, and there's lots of flooding. I've never experienced one in person, but I've heard one from a video, and they've even had tornadoes from some of them as far North as Thesaloniki. Sometimes, they also come later than usual.

Or God is bowling for a strike. lol

New England Storm Chasers LMAO!! Or that ;) but it's nice to just think about to calm children with it. It worked for me and my sisters.. and we use it on the other children coming into our family now. They love it and watch them instead of being terrified.

Elly Morris same thing with me. Just needed to outgrow the fear of thunder by actually watching the whole entire thunderstorm. Now, I chase them.

New England Storm Chasers I'd love to do that. Chase them.

+New England Storm Chasers so then would a super close lightning strike be a strike for god then? i mean like hitting a tree right outside your house?

Tank you now im bleeding ear lol

This is why if you thunder or see lightning, go indoors. Lightning can arch 15 miles from a thunderstorm.

+New England Storm Chasers I was at home one night and i guess a storm moved in without me knowing it. It was too quiet. Then all of a sudden, CRASH! man i jumped outta my chair. I put some music on after that. lol

+New England Storm Chasers the only thing that really scares me about storms (i love watching them) is being hit by lightning or having to endure the super close strike that you dont expect, that creates such a loud crack, you go deaf.

+New England Storm Chasers I can't wait for spring 2016. Bring on the severe weather, I got my camera ready. I love loud violent storms.

I thought it can come from 80 miles away at the most.

Actually, lightning is always loud anywhere you go. It all depends on the moisture and humidity in the surrounding area during a thunderstorm. Air expands more easily when it's more humid outside.

@@NESCWX Especially when the thunderstorm cell is at low altitude.

If I recall correctly, (I think) the zap is the interference with the camera equipment caused the lightning strike - but not the actual sound from the bolt itself. Still would have been like yards away though!

Negative Strike from about 200m away. That is dangerously close.

No, just passing gas.

You don't see nothing? Be glad. You still have eyesight.

Your wrong there and why watch this storm and then comment that 😂😂😂

Liar this storm is amazing the audio of the rumbles of thunder are spot on and theres nothing wrong with this storm video
