Idk, I dig storms, I usually end up outside. lol

 

[GeorgeH]

Well, at least for a few minutes anyway.

 

[ScampMike]

that trip to NJ really took a round outta me.. the hours were nothing, it was the stress factor dealing with the idiots that cut me off, and trailer sway and just the fact that I despise being in that kind of traffic

me too - though I have learned to watch from indoors. It was the timing of it all last night, f**ked me up

Towing a trailer, I hear that.

I have some video somewhere of a storm that went through here the first year we lived here - eye opening for sure, stay the hell indoors!!!

 

[ScampMike]

have you ever heard the "tick" noise a lightening strike makes just before it hits?

 

[360DartGT66]

I usually enjoy thunder storms - at least the mild kind we get here - but ten years ago or so, one parked over my FIL:s house where we were staying. It boomed and rained hard thru the night. It really made me anxious eventually.

A lot of houses were struck by lightning or flooded that night and roads got washed away.

 

[ScampMike]

if you're outside and you hear it, it's already too late

Worst one I've been in was hurricane in Fl. 130+mph winds. That one scared me.

yes, and the static in the air.

it might be - and it's a sure sign that you are WAY too close - or it's WAY to close to you.. LOL

 

[ScampMike]
