Severe Thunderstorm 9/12/2013 | Close Lightning Strikes

[@gitane1976]

I like the sound of thunder rolling in the distance. Especially at night when you're sleeping and you hear this sound and look at the window and there are lightning flashes...

[@kenpalmer1965]

Yeah, I agree with you! Laying in bed while listening to thunder and seeing lightning flashes is sleeping weather for me!

[@heathg2681]

I love severe thunder and lightning storms, very relaxing to me and the lightning itself is just plain...AWESOME!!

[@fjc8900]

Same

[@barberjeff67]

This is perfect! The distant thunder sounds relaxing to me. Growing up in central Vermont, we'd get some great storms. I remember my mother herding us into the cellar a few times as a kid because the storms were so strong!

[@Agui007]

I dare say the US has the best storms in the world with the perfect geography for such conditions. What a beautiful storm you caught here! ;)

[@Toby761]

2:29 scared the crap out of me lol great storm

[@anastasiasheniloff8973]

Omg! Me too! It made me jump and my heart nearly stopped!

[@TeamGrimmie1994]

Me Too

[@user-te6kb3cg6p]

We just got one a few hours ago. Woke me up, and had constant thunder, couldn't check the weather because my internet was being weird, but it wasn't severe until it went into rhode island

[@andrewsonkin277]

Actually by 13 mins you have the main cell keep building over you which explains the close cloud to ground lightning.

[@MuscleMaxZ1]

great video and sound, nearly continuous thunder. too bad the lightning was out of view or perhaps as is often the case during the daytime the lightning is shrouded by clouds. When I'm back east for some of the summer, I always anticipate storms and always have my camcorder ready! cheers!

[@andrewsonkin277]

The one at 11:49 I just love to hear it cracking then boom as i just love and dont jump when its loud "LIKED"

[@Budkingers1]

Awesome video! Thank you!

[@stuartwilson5747]

Good storm this mate and thanks for sharing its always nice to watch a good storm especially this one 😀👍

[@beezzzus]

Love this! Watched it over three times, great background "music". :-)

[@stuartoneill5968]

The best tunder storm I have ever seen

[@tarkushead]

It must be kinda cool to be a storm chaser and not have to chase a storm - just let it come to you. Thanks for uploading.

[@NESCWX]

No Problem!

[@jeretrain]

incroyable les impacts de foudre

[@mattn3273]

Awesome quality of the audio

[@opradan43]

WHERE was it (town; state)? MAGNIFICENT!!

[@DavidOConnellvTnY1991]

Where was this video taken?

[@Pratishkabanerjee]

2:29 Holy crap ..... Extremely close.... Scared me too

[@pagangamer87]

My nan and aunty told me during a storm to calm me "It's okay.. it's only god moving his furniture." lol or "He's shaking his bed covers and patting down his pillows. Getting ready for bed." hahaha :) it worked. I love them now.

[@NESCWX]

Or God is bowling for a strike. lol

[@pagangamer87]

New England Storm Chasers LMAO!! Or that ;) but it's nice to just think about to calm children with it. It worked for me and my sisters.. and we use it on the other children coming into our family now. They love it and watch them instead of being terrified.

[@NESCWX]

Elly Morris same thing with me. Just needed to outgrow the fear of thunder by actually watching the whole entire thunderstorm. Now, I chase them.

[@pagangamer87]

New England Storm Chasers I'd love to do that. Chase them.

[@NelsonBigGunP200Fan]

+New England Storm Chasers so then would a super close lightning strike be a strike for god then? i mean like hitting a tree right outside your house?

[@sandyy.8244]

I know they are dangerous to people and property, but I do love T-storms! Don't get them here in San Diego CA but maybe one or two in five years. I vacation in New Hampshire every autumn and have always seen at least one; thankfully didn't have to drive in one, but enjoyed them from the safety of my doorway at the motel.

[@brianprahasto8397]

Why the US lightning often very loud if compared with Indonesia?

[@NESCWX]

Actually, lightning is always loud anywhere you go. It all depends on the moisture and humidity in the surrounding area during a thunderstorm. Air expands more easily when it's more humid outside.

[@aliultimate009]

@@NESCWX Especially when the thunderstorm cell is at low altitude.

[@MultiStorm15]

Wow this a noisy storm I got that same kind of thunder tear on video this summer "The Missile Effect"

[@Cornishtravelvlogs]

I live in UK and the storms are nothing like USA it's crazy

[@iGF3R]

I live in wales, UK and some of the storms we have had in late august right through to the end of september were amazing to see, i live on the seafront and i have never seen the sea looking so violent in my life

[@heatherstub]

You should experience the ones on one of the Greek Islands. They have these screaming winds with thunder and lightning, and you'd think it's the end of the world. They're called Meltamias, and they usually start in late August or September and go on and off, but they simmer down once the main front passes through. You'll know when they're about to happen, because it's totally still, and the temperature is around 90-95 DG. F, and the humidity builds over several days. At night, it gets down to about 75 to 70, but when they're around the corner, you still don't know it until: the winds start right as the clouds come boiling through the sky, and you hear the winds screaming. Then, the lightning and thunder, then the downpour, and the temperatures drop about 30 to 35 degrees in only a couple of hours if that. From what my God Mother told me, the storms continue to happen over the next 2 to 3 days, and there's lots of flooding. I've never experienced one in person, but I've heard one from a video, and they've even had tornadoes from some of them as far North as Thesaloniki. Sometimes, they also come later than usual.

[@andrewsonkin277]

and then you have 2nd return strike 10 secs after that

[@user-te6kb3cg6p]

rip ears of people who were wearing headphones at max volume

[@ErikPAPATIE]

Tank you now im bleeding ear lol

[@NelsonBigGunP200Fan]

Isn't it awesome how powerful lightning is ? i mean it's so powerful that we can't even capture it. It would be awesome to harness it's power for free electricity, but nothing we have thats man made can capture it. it would fry anything you try to hold it with.

[@lucypruett7213]

this hit in the middle of my horse ridding lesson it was bad

[@stingsAUTTP]

It was Worse at my county @7:30pm at night winds gusting over 60mph but no power surges or outages

[@infiniteflightaviationexpe4042]

Didn't expect to see ya! -IFAE member

[@childofgod140]

2:25 Caught me off guard lol.

[@NESCWX]

This is why if you thunder or see lightning, go indoors. Lightning can arch 15 miles from a thunderstorm.

[@NelsonBigGunP200Fan]

+New England Storm Chasers I was at home one night and i guess a storm moved in without me knowing it. It was too quiet. Then all of a sudden, CRASH! man i jumped outta my chair. I put some music on after that. lol

[@NelsonBigGunP200Fan]

+New England Storm Chasers the only thing that really scares me about storms (i love watching them) is being hit by lightning or having to endure the super close strike that you dont expect, that creates such a loud crack, you go deaf.

[@NelsonBigGunP200Fan]

+New England Storm Chasers I can't wait for spring 2016. Bring on the severe weather, I got my camera ready. I love loud violent storms.

[@heatherstub]

I thought it can come from 80 miles away at the most.

[@ThePapabear1017]

Been nice if we could of seen the lighting strikes.

[@squirreltamer2548]

A zap at 2:28 right before the thunderclap, that’s way too freakin’ close.

[@bucephalus00]

If I recall correctly, (I think) the zap is the interference with the camera equipment caused the lightning strike - but not the actual sound from the bolt itself. Still would have been like yards away though!

[@aliultimate009]

Negative Strike from about 200m away. That is dangerously close.

[@SARISS80]

God: Wait my son. Let me hit this last thunder switch. Lol

[@mrd5885]

O my good storm severe love nature incrible

[@Kimtwister]

i always thought god was playing bowling and each time a lightning bolt hit he got a strike

[@Kimtwister]

i think the guy with the lawn mover doest give a care in the world about the storm comming sheesh

[@nathanielbilirancocoba4037]
