My favorite music isn’t made by humans. There’s no sweeter sound than rain. I love listening to its arrhythmic patter from inside a car at night. It’s a reassuring sound, even as it evokes old memories and life's unanswered questions.
XO- Speaking of thunderstoms, when I lived in western Kansas I used to marvel at watching a T-Storm advance up the prairie. Because of the horizontal nature of the landscape, you could see these monster anvil clouds coming from hundreds of miles away. Very impressive.
emaw - I experienced the same sort of awe on a trip to Wyoming. I was far enough away, and high enough (in relation to sea level, not "pinkfloydhigh"), that I could see the entire thunderstorm super cell. Top to bottom, side to side, surrounded by sunny, uneffected areas.
Incredible.
And way cooler than your story because I was in Wyoming instead of western Kansas.
Heh heh heh heh!!!

I love a rainy night. I love to hear the thunder, watch the lightening when it lights up the sky.

Count me in. Nothing beats a good thunderstorm. Especially if it's just noise and light without the tornados.
I also like it right after a huge snowstorm. I like to get out right after it stops. Everything is blindingly white incredibly quiet!
Awesome.

I can't sing as well you guys, but I love a rainy day. I could watch rain falling for hours.
It forces one to think, in a way that sunshine never can.
