The room lit up with light briefly, and soon thereafter the thunder caused the dogs to become nervous.
Stay dry and safe!

Was a nice intro to warm stormy weather.

That was crazy. One big flash and then a massive rumble. I haven't heard anything since.

My first thought was - Trains? Lol. But yeah, thunderstorm! I like them, as long as I’m inside!

The big rumble caught me off guard! I even went outside to see what all the hubub was about.
I love thunderstorms. At least I'll have more luck wishing for one of those than I would a good snow anymore.

My husband called out "what was that?" I called out" was that thunder?" and it just kept going and going ... it finally stopped.It rained a little, we have heard 2 small rumbles and husband has seen one flash.I had just hopped off of weather dot com so I could plan my week and I saw the little green snot bubble just south of me and said Ah, so rain right now, I will hold off until tomorrow. Went upstairs to finish up nighttime routine with our son and the thunder just suddenly came out of no where.
Now we are just downstairs until bedtime, just in case we need to get to shelter.
Husband is chill, I on the other hand, living here since '94 I do not trust March or April with weather lol

I love this thread so much. I was putting our toddler down and heard it the first time. Doing what I do for a living, rumbles are…. unsettling, lol. I looked outside and there was literally nothing happening, and I got confused. Then we got a free power washing

Wild amount of lightning for such a small storm.

I was kind of prepared to meet the end times for a split second.

Was going to go for a walk to clear my head some but that plan got nixed so I guess I’ll do the dishes?

There was some talk about a deranged fugitive running through dorset woods which isn’t too far from me, so I initially thought maybe that had escalated in some capacity. It feels like the wrong everything for thunder!

Does thunder not happen here often? I’ve only been here 6 months and that’s the first thunder I’ve heard.
LeicesterHoult t1_jdy8lhj wrote
The past 5-6 months are not the most active months for severe storms. It's coming!

Ahhh I love it. I miss thunderstorms.

I've got no problem with storms, they're quite refreshing.
"Severe" storms, I don't mess with those.

In summer yes, plenty of thunderstorms. In winter not so much.

I haven’t been here much longer than you but we had some great summer thunderstorms in my opinion. Not sure how the frequency varied from any other year though.
DeannaZone t1_je0stfx wrote
My poor husband when he moved here sometime early '00s experienced the hectic storms we had that year in like '04 where the summer was non stop gully washers and you had like 30 lightning strikes in the span of less than a half an hour.
It has been over two decades, he loves storms, he would rather not have to deal with that.
I just do not want to deal with another Derecho that was scary for me.

My wife saw the flash walking outside as well, I stepped outside and heard 4 or 5 booms. I love listening to thunder...that didn't sound like thunder.
