I like thunderstorms! They are so beautiful and just a tiny show piece of God's overall power (at least that's my belief). The one thing that's kind of annoying is that somehow whenever I go to make fudge all of a sudden a thunderstorm comes šŸ˜‚ . It's like somehow it knows.
 
I find the lightningā€™s amazingly beautiful to look at from 1 meter behind a window, safe in my house or wherever I am ar such a moment.

Most special:
Long time ago my future husband and I were hitchhiking to Greece and sat on the front seat of a van with the owner when an amazing thunderstorm was in front of us. We drove on the highway through Yugoslavia at that time not far from Belgrado.
The guy from the van got extremely exited, screaming and shouting of joy.
It was the most beautiful lightshow I ever did see (knowing it was all natural).
 
Thunderstorms down south are 100% different that we experienced in the northeast. They can be very loud and violent, especially when a cold front slams into the hot/humid southern air. The fear of Tornadoes is always on my mind, that's why we have a Tornado Shelter.

Our two granddaughters were young teens they were visiting here from the Boston area. They were excited that Thunderstorms were on the way. I warned the girls the storms were different here. They didn't care, they wanted to sit on the front porch and watch the lightning like they do at home. The first close air to ground lightning strike was extremely loud and the concussion shook our house. There was a very loud screams and a blur of two girls running for the bedroom closet.
 
Check to see if my truck windows are up.
