Lightning!

When I went up to Washington for two Summers recently, it would rain like 95% of the time. I remember seeing a lot of lightning or at least more than I do now, but it's always been like that up there for a long time.

dmaster out.
 
We just got a nasty hailstorm, that started as a lightning storm. The hail was almost as large as golfballs, just slightly smaller. That was pretty scary. Especially hearing the hail hit our window. Man was that loud!

Both Zapdos and Articuno visited Calgary that day.
 
Ahhhh, New England. The home of all weather ailments. You name it, we have it smaller scale most of the time.

But if there's one thing about New England, it's our catchphrase: 'You don't like the weather? Wait a minute'.

I can't tell you how many times this has been true. Thunderstorms come and go as they please here, along with any other kinda weather combinations you can imagine. It's been snowing and thunderstorming before. Don't ask me how it works, I DON'T KNOW.

As for thunderstorms, so long as they aren't when I'm sleeping and like right overhead (even then half the time I sleep right through them), I kinda like them. I enjoy the sound of the rain and the hopefully not crazy winds and rumbling of thunder. Something a little romantic about them, I guess.

But if there's one thing not cool about these storms, it's the winds and the floods they produce. New England is probably most prone to flooding and high winds. We've actually been in state of emergencies from stuff that comes from storms. It's kinda crazy when you lose power in freezing cold December for a half-week.
 
omg a year or so ago we had a football championship in a thunderstorm >.< best game ever.....except we lost :[
 
I was in Oregon last week in Bend and there were really nasty storms. It started snowing at Mount Shasta and there was this mist in the sun that made the visiblity really bad.
 
There was a Lighning storm At my house and my dogs Jumped right next to me near the wall. Also we went out of town and my dogs tore up the carpet
 
Lighting is fun to watch and listen to technically except when the power goes out lol, especially the heat lighting. It's crazy.

I live In Australia, and it`s pretty sunny. I only remember seeing lighting once, in 4 year old kindergarden, i thought it looked cool. Yeah, we don`t get many thunderstorms here.

Something like that happened to me when I was in Minnesota. The hail started coming down when I was looking at the lightning out a window. I had my face up against it, so when the hail struck the window, I thought I got shot -_- that was the loudest thing I've ever heard.
