That said, I was mightily annoyed when I discovered that, even in driving rain, it's difficult for me to hear it hitting the rooftop in my home.<br />That should most definitely be on the home-buyer's guide: rating scale of how well you can hear a rain storm!Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02099840174793186789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8775005854493251595.post-10536859190442626912012-07-17T20:46:54.447-07:002012-07-17T20:46:54.447-07:00We've had thunderstorms and drenching rains pr...We've had thunderstorms and drenching rains pretty much every day for the last three weeks and I am in absolute heaven.

I grew up in the desert, where the storms are unlike anywhere else in the world and now I live in the Midwest, where you kinda have to like storms and also be afraid of them. Unfortunately, we haven't had hardly any this summer. :( I miss them. I'm glad someone's getting them if we aren't, though!Nesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12891790511823931595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8775005854493251595.post-30051641604336060432012-07-17T08:55:14.407-07:002012-07-17T08:55:14.407-07:00You are so right.

My mom was terribly afraid of the very bad ones and sometimes would take us into the basement. She instilled that fear in one of my sisters who now lives in the San Francisco area where they don't have thunderstorms. A few years ago she was visiting me in the summer and we were in NJ at the beach (notice how I don't say Jersey Shore). We had an amazing thunderstorm which we watched from the porch - well, her kids who had never seen one watched with me and my kids while my sister stayed inside. I gently told her not to pass her fear onto her kids as thunderstorms can be so lovely to watch...of course, they need respect as well.Estellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17614412234146996741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8775005854493251595.post-83116239033580491782012-07-16T21:17:55.232-07:002012-07-16T21:17:55.232-07:00Wow!

I love to start the day with a good thunder storm here in Maine but I think one of the most impressive I've seen moved south to north over the Salt Lake Valley of Utah.

I love summer storms :) <br /><br />As a funny aside I woke up yesterday morning to a thunder storm and in my groggy half awake/half asleep state I honestly thought it was all my kiddos pounding their feet on the wall. I almost got up to tell them to stop when I realized it was just thunder :PPassionate Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00703752575121337672noreply@blogger.com
