I love thunderstorms - I was sat in the conservatory watching and listening to the one the other night.
The best one I've ever seen was in southern France, I watched it coming down the valley towards the village, the lightning display was marvellous. |

Thunder and lightening (very, very frightening) ~ love it. Absolute love watching lightning. It's one of the things in life I still have a child-like excitement about. At the first rumble of thunder I'm at the window watching and waiting whilst counting.... |

Not seen much lightening nowadays as much as I did as a kid 
Coincidentally, been chatting to a woman who says thunder and rain is a turn on for her 
I've been dancing to the thunder gods to bring thunder now! |

Almost +1 here......
Love a good storm and lightning watching, but I must admit to not doing my homework first. I just hope I get lucky.
Kinda like Fab, really..... |

I was above ground level and It was a summer day In the peak district the forecast had missed this rogue thunderstorm I was nearly out in the open till I saw part of the sky In the horizon turn dark grey and It eventually spread right across the skyline I had already turned back towards some farm buildings and just got back to them and found shelter beneath a barn when the heavens opened It was quite a event to be almost up in a thunderstorm you had to see it to believe it it was pure luck I was in the right place at the right time something I never forget about to this day over 25 years ago now. |

I'm obsessed! My nephew was so scared today bless him, so I told him it's just grandad in heaven moving furniture around. And for hours after that we sat at the window and happily watched the sky.  |

"Were having thunder and lightning here and it is very exciting! I want to watch a horror film and have the curtains open but I think I might fall asleep soon. "
Oh I’m so jealous, that’s my favourite!
A couple of years ago there was an uber storm back home at my parents. My mum lives in the middle of nowhere with no neighbours and no street lights. The power went out so it was pitch black. We opened the curtains to the patio doors to watch. When the lightening lit the sky it was so surreal because it made everything look like a twisted black and white version of outside. It was sooo spooky but amazing! |

Just headed up to Breedon on hill to get a better view of a storm, but ended up seeing flashes and banging of a different kind, turns out it's a dogging spot  
Didn't stay long haha |

Oh that sounds just eerily brilliant! I love the spookiness of it all, I love the smell after a good thunderstorm, all that petrichorly clean goodness in the air. In Barbados we got caught in a tropical thunderstorm and the rain was warm and I remember loving every minute of it as we played outside. |

Yes the air is so much clearer! I get headaches when they’re due and the storm clears it so breathing in is like being able to breath properly after having a blocked nose for ages!
Ohhh! Warm thunderstorms are amazing! That must have been incredible! It reminds me of being a teenager down the beach with friends swimming in the sea during a storm because we could catch the biggest waves! Then going home and being beasted by our mothers  |

Currently having the building I work in flooded out right now....its coming in through the roller doors and has burst through the internal roof drainpipes and is pissing in everywhere.
The thunder is ace though although im hoping it doesn't burst over the flood gates on the canal where i live as it flows down my road and would meet the canal in my back garden. |

I love being out in storms, any kind of storm. I worked mostly outdoors for @32 years and always get excited and try to be out when they hit. One of the few things that remind me I'm alive... |

Love storms. Love the energy in them, enjoy being in them. Most spectacular storm was a 3 day long storm whilst in the Himalayas. The sounds bounce off the mountains and make it sound super loud and a bit scary. |

Fingers crossed. Nottingham seems to have its own weird little microclimate, though – the last few instances of interesting weather have almost entirely passed me by.

"What happened to these storms we supposed to have had"
They went around/past us, but there was alot.
Thunderstorms are one of the most difficult weather occurances to predict, so just got unlucky |
