Do you have them where you live?

If you think you do, you don't.

That's one of the things I miss about Florida. The thunderstorms there are a show. We'd watch the storms roll in off the ocean... a booming wall of electrified water. Awesome stuff.

Just reminiscing since we're getting a "thunderstorm" here in Denver right now.

We can get some pretty nast ones here, pretty comparable to the ones in Florida but the bigs ones are rarer. Used to see some badass electrical storms when I lived in Cincinnati.

Well, we used to have them up here in the Seattle/ Bellingham area. The last good one I saw was in Leavenworth 3 years ago. And I loved every minute of it.

One of the best memories of my childhood was sitting on the porch with my dad watching a thunderstorm.

"Those are the gods bowling son" he would say to me. Man I miss those days. RIP pops.

We get them here in the summer. They're fun to watch.

Was nearly struck on a lake in my grandpa's boat fishing when I was 12. Good times. You get scared sh1tless when your fishing pole starts shocking you.
