How Do You Feel About Thunderstorms?

I don't usually like rain but when it's in a thunderstorm I love to look out of my window at the lightning and listen out for the thunder. I have always liked Thunderstorms and I put up with the bad weather only for a thunderstorm.

I don't have any particularly strong feelings about thunderstorms. They are not very pleasant I suppose. But I do not mind them. They can be a little scary at night time especially if they are really loud. In some ways I like the dramatic effect that they create. And cuddling up to someone on a stormy night isn't so bad!

Hello! There to me is nothing like a spring or summer thunderstorm . So very pretty to sit on your porch and watch it pour down rain , and watch the sky light up . I have never had a fear of them. Growing up my dad would make us go to the basement if the storm got real bad and he would get upset because I would just wanna chill on the porch . I am sure people who do fear them had something happened . Like a friend of mine she dont like them because lighting struck a tree and it fell thru her house and almost hurt her brother .

I think it's a warning from God. So did earthquake. Thunderstorm is like warning us about God's wrath, that He's angry to see our behaviour that sometimes we do without remember Him.

We lived by a lake in northern Minnesota during the summers when I was growing up, and lightening over the lake was spectacular, but also terrifying. We had a very tall outside television antenna which was located just outside my bedroom window. One night during a fierce thunderstorm, it was hit by lightening. I could actually see a jagged blue-white line of electricity zap across my room to the door handle. Although my fear of thunderstorms and the lightening they produce has lessened over the years, I still cringe when I hear that first rumble in the distance. Now my concern is mainly for my computer equipment because several years ago I lost a laptop, a scanner, and a modem to a lightening strike.

See, I have wonderful experience in my life. Once in my college days I was almost knocked down by the lightening.It was in the rainy after noon I was just playing some musical instrument sitting on a cane chair inside my room.Outside,it was raining with occasional thundering.Suddenly I felt that there was a big explosion in my room and I just threw my self through the door. I saw sudden flashing surrounding me and electric wares were started burning with flare like any fireworks.All the electrical bulbs got exploded.Floor of the room was full of glass pieces.I had to change the repair the entire electrical connection.People came from electric supply and they said that I was very lucky. It was my rebirth.Next morning I discovered that there was a small hole in the plinth of my room. It was just through the wall with almost 1 cm diameter.Actually the charge came through that way since there was an old Fluorescent tube kept inclined to the wall.It worked as a good conductor.End of the week I saw the leaves of one of my coconut tree adjacent to my room was becoming yellowish.We understand that the major charge was attracted by that life saver tree. It was only a small particle the endangered my life.

I feel scary. I do not like thunderstorms. I try to keep my ears closed with my hands.I can't withstand them from long.

i don't particularly like thunderstorms but i am not afraid of them either. i think lightening is the real danger and not enough people take it seriously. you need to get indoors when it is lightening out. that is the bottom line. my son is very fearful of both the lightening and the sound of the thunder and he gets very agitated by it so we are working on that with him so he does not have to be afraid.

I love thunderstorms! When I was young, my siblings and I used to set up our chairs in the vestibule with the front door open, put on our raincoats and watch the lightening. I think lightening is gorgeous!

well. every time when the thunderstorm happens. i always do my fastest to turn off all the electric at the house and re open that when the thunderstorm stopped.that's really a commn thing here on the summer and i have to make sure all my electrities won't be broken by that.and personnally i do not fear about that.

I am sorry about the two girls. In my younger years, I do remember that I used to be scared of thunderstorm. But I have gotten over it when I got older. Now, I do not feel scared at all but I am not even thrilled to it as well.

I think thunderstorms are beautiful and I have enjoyed them ever since I was a child. I stand at the window and watch the lighting. I like the way it lights up the sky and the way it looks. The thunder can be a bit frightening especially if it shakes the whole house when it is directly overhead but on the whole it just makes me appreciate nature and how it can effect everything we do.

I like thunderstorms. The lightning is so good for the crops and the flowers. The wind cools everything off. I love to watch the trees as they bend almost touching the ground but, not quite making it. Afterwards, there is that refreshing smell. I love to watch the rain line too. When I was little, a tornado went thru the back yard. It blew out the windows,and tore the door off of its hinges. A tree totally destroyed our garage. After living thru that, you come to understand that certain circumstances in life no one has control over, and you learn to accept it for what it is. When you can do that, thunderstorms just aren't scary anymore.

I live in India and its always hot here. But now it is rainy season and its awesome. I'm fine with mild lightning and thunder. Last year November whole of south India was flooded. One night the lightning and thunder was terrible. The noise of thunder was really scary and really load. Whole of my family woke up and we were freaked out because of the thunder. I sounded like some heavy meteor shower or some bomb blast. I will never forget that.

This is funny because we are in the middle of a thunderstorm right now and I'm loving it. Its mainly because we don't get alot of rain here in the desert. To me they are exciting though and I just welcome them.

I don't like them either, they really scare me at night. I think it's because we used to live in this really old farmhouse when I was a kid. I found that house sooo frightening at night and I wasn't the only one. My grandfather was scared in the house too.

i think the lightning is just beautiful, nothing bad happen to me and people around me before, but i do scared of thunderstorm. I like to watch the lightning from somewhere that i feel safe :)

Considering that thing about the girls, I am not surprised that you do not like thunderstorms. It would have been a bad experience getting told something like that, so your dislike for storms at night is probably justified. As far as i am concerned, I have loved storms since i was a kid. They are fascinating, the lightning, the violent winds and the cold rain. I really enjoy being outside when it is storming. Fortunately, some of my friends feel the same way and whenever we get a good storm we go outside for a walk. OF course we catch a cold afterwards, but it is good fun.

I happen to be a person that loves thunderstorms if I'm indoors. I am afraid of them if I'm outside- even in my car. Something about just listening to the thunder and rain is somewhat peaceful for me. I have friends that are scared of them as well & get that- they can be scary.

I've always loved thunderstorms, even when i was a little girl. I used to get really excited and open the back door and just sit their watching the lightning and listening to the thunder and the rain. Nowadays i just love to lay in bed and listen to the rain against my window and the thunder and watch the lightning light up my room, or go walking without an umbrella in pouring rain.
