Thunder and lightning...

Very very frightening

Just had a YUGE storm! You wouldn't believe this storm. It was, like, the BEST storm, OK?

Rain so heavy it looked like something out of an overblown Hollywood movie. Thunder & lightning that just went on & on. (And is still going on.) Never seen anything like it. Apocalyptic, if you were superstitious.

And AMAZING, in case that's not obvious. :)

You are freaky.:)

I like to see lighting so I can cover my ears before the thunder clap.

:D

And the lightening was like... a strobe light. (Literally, not exaggerating.) With the thunder right on top of us.

Where do you live in the UK (general area)? We had some thunder and lightning here in Gloucestershire but wasn't anything spectacular.

I love it as long as I'm indoors. 8D

West Yorkshire.

And we opened the door to have a better look, the rain was *torrential*! Very very glad not to be out in it.

Ooh boy! You're further above sea level than me, no wonder it was more spectacular.

Aye, we do things proper like, up 'ere!

I love a good thunderstorm. Do you get many around you? Hot, humid, and miserable with afternoon or evening thunderstorms are the way of life in the summer for us, though I feel like we've had surprisingly few this year . . .

Ballroom blitz?

I haven't listen to that song in ages...

Oh sorry, you were referring to the "Bohemian Rhapsody" song by the British rock band Queen?. Anyway...

If I'm experiencing a major thunder storm my poor cat can't cover her ears and the dogs in the neighborhood howl. My house gets flooded because of the outdated drain system.

But if I wasn't, I'm sure it would be entertaining.:)

LOL!! I adore you!! (Storms are some of my favorite things!)

*HUGS*

Very jealous of your rain! We need just that, very badly.

There's nothing quite like a good storm! We had one a few weeks back, you could hear the glass rattling in the windows when the thunder cracked! And the flash of the lightning gave me chills. We didn't lose power though, which was pretty impressive!

You were doing this in Trump speak, right? LOL. It's scary that I could hear his gross voice in my head.

My husband loves watching the rain and thunderstorms. I always tease him about it because I don't get it.

Yes, Bohemian Rhapsody. :)

And howling and flooding would rather curb the enjoyment of a storm...

We don't get a lot, so they're always a treat (if not caught in them). This one, however, was something else...

Losing power would have been quite a downer. Esp as we were halfway through watching ep 4 of Victoria...
elisi: Master, thumbs up (Master - good by charmax)

Oh aye, Trump speak. He has a very distinctive pattern. And the best thing to do is to mock!

I think it's just so... overpowering. Like giant cliffs or something.

Can't wait to see that series, hoping the library will get the DVD :)

I envy your enthusiasm.:)

I love thunderstorms, provided I'm not caught out in one. : 0

I miss storms. I miss RAIN. Funny how you curse it all the time, until you suddenly don't have it any more. : (

I love a good storm. Fortunately Texas has some amazing lightning and thunder storms.

It was only for a few hours (we need a few days' worth of rain), but it was heaven while it lasted.
