Currently, we're have a thunderstorm, with lighting close enough to shake the house a bit once the thunder part comes. It shook my phone off of the nightstand a moment ago.

It's so pretty to watch though. I love it, especially with the background sound of rain pouring.

So, what's your opinions on it? Hate it? Dislike it? Meh? Like it? Love it? Why?

Lightning's pretty keen, as long as it's not causing any power outages. :7
I'd probably enjoy thunderstorms more if my dogs didn't make so much of a racket over them.

Yeah, luckily my cats are already asleep or else they'd be making a huge racket as well.

I'd enjoy it more if we didn't have to pull the plug on all electric appliances.

I just love storms in general. The rain and thunder helps me sleep. Dunno why. So long as it doesn't knock out a power line or cause any bushfires, then I'm happy! :P

Mostly indifferent I like the storm a little.

I love watching lightning storms. I tend to count the time between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder.

I love rain and lightning is pretty cool to watch, but I'm not overly fond of thunder, especially when I'm working a graveyard shift and it wakes my patients.

You know, when I first read that, it sounded like you worked in a graveyard, and the lighting woke the dead like zombies. XD

Unless the lightning is going to cause a power outage, I'm fine with them.

Even as a kid, I loved watching the sudden bursts of light at nighttime.

I spent plenty of time outside fighting dummies with broomhandles during summertime in my kidhood (And sometimes to this day, but with less frequency) Nothing on this earth could make you feel more badass... Short of fighting an entire biker gang in that thunderstorm or choking out a raging lion or battling the forces of hell with a shotgun or beating the shit out of a horde of angry kung-fu-knowing Chinamen in a dusty town square.

Sesorak na guiva! Lisesorak na guiva!

I'd probably enjoy them more if I hadn't had to run through downpours and large hail so many times in my life due to the accompanying tornado or having to do without electrical devices for the duration of the storm.
