A big ass thunderstorm. I DO NOT LIKE thunderstorms! :scared: Nor do my cats..I bet I won't see them for awhile when I get home...x(

[lizziegrace]

[lizziegrace]

3. I hope they hold together

I've just gotten sprinkles at home. Everything's so dry. :(

[VenusRising]

4. You need to go outside and do a rain dance.

At least you don't have neighbors close enough to see you. ;) :P

[lizziegrace]

8. *snort*! (to quote my daughter)

That will cement my reputation as the crazy lady in the big house... :silly:

[VenusRising]

17. They call that eccentric, darling.

Besides, you've lived in the south...they put their crazies out on the front porch to show them off to the neighbors. :rofl::P

:hug::loveya:

[RebelOne]

10. I'll send you some from here in Georgia.

I have had enough of rain and storms for the past month. The weather news people keep saying that that's good because we need the rain because of the drought we have had. I say, enough already!!! I am going to do a reverse rain dance.

[lizziegrace]

12. Send it on!

My garden needs it.

Glad Georgia is finally getting ahead of the drought. :)

[MorningGlow]

5. Want!!

We never get decent thunderstorms around here. We joke that it's because of our alpha male cat--he HATES thunder or strong winds, and starting when we first got him (he was a rescue at 6 mos., 12 years ago), all thunderstorms started going AROUND us. We track them on the radar--they seem to be headed straight for us, but at the last minute they always veer off course or wink out of existence. And we've lived in three different towns! We decided long ago that it was Dilbert vaporizing "da booms". Below: piccie of "happy pants".

I don't like them either and I just heard a loud rumbling sound outside. :scared:

7. Second picture

That was pretty close..:scared: they are done for now anyway.. More tonight...

[charlie and algernon]

11. holy hell, that first picture....

looks like something out of War of the Worlds. Where is that taken from?

[jeff30997]

14. I believe that in fact it's not an actual thunderstorm but...

a volcano in Chile.The huge dust and ash cloud produce the lightning.

Here's something that also looks like an Alien invasion:




:wow:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

18. Is that what they call a "supercell"?

That's scary as hell!

[jeff30997]

21. Yes it is.

And you just made a lovely poem. :)

[GoddessOfGuinness]

[jeff30997]

[MorningGlow]

Kthxbai = okay thanks bye. Of COURSE! :D

[jeff30997]

20. Oh ! Lol.

[cwydro]

16. My cats do not mind thunderstorms or

even hurricanes,

But the dogs hate both.

[texanwitch]

22. We were suppose to get a storm yesterday but I went south of us.

I was looking forward to it.

Now I have to water the garden.

[BeachBaby]

23. And, like always, it's moving in on us.

It got eerily black and windy outside. I haven't even checked to see if the game is still on.

[TZ]

24. Good luck with Bayleigh

That storm was LOUD...

[seemunkee]

27. I was on our porch when I heard a crackle and then a flash boom

The dogs and I went inside very quickly

[KamaAina]

28. PSA: Thunderstorms are quite rare in Hawai'i.

:-)

Seriesly, I once knew a border collie who didn't like them, either. Of course, since she was born here, that is not entirely surprising. Long story short, one day a few years ago we did have one, I ended up at her house, she ended up on my lap, and I had a three-inch-long claw mark on my tummy for several weeks.

[old mark]

29. We have storms all this week, a slight break and then more forecast

starting again Tuesday.
We were low on rain a month ago, I think we have enough now, thanks.....

Give some elsewhere.
