Do you like thunder and lightning?

Question

Its started thundering here in Manchester and I must confess, I quite like it. I think its because its atmospheric. But I know some people are scared of / don't like lightening. So which way do you sway, and why?

Answer 1

I nearly had a heart attack. The thunder here (edinburgh) yesterday was so loud i thought it was an explosion! :O. I generally don't mind thunder, but i'm not to keen on lightning

Answer 2

i like it because it shows some of the wonder of the power of nature (no its not god stamping around lamebrains)

Answer 3

i dont mind it as long as im not out in it

Answer 4

I love it

Answer 5

I love both:  I love the kind of lightning that arcs across the sky, or the single and multiple strikes to the ground.  

Thunder, the really loud ones can get too much but I love the long low rumbling ones, like a bowling ball rolling in the gutter with a couple of thumps and thuds in there.

Answer 6

it's ok. depends on my the mood that i'm in. the one good thing is a good storm cleans the air.

Answer 7

I love it because I like the way when you're sitting at home in the dark, it's so quiet and then a big flash of lightening and a boom of thunder. I always turn out the lights and the TV when it's thunder and lightning, it makes it even more atmospheric. I don't think there's anything to be scared of, it's nature.

Answer 8

I love it as long as I don't get killed :]

Answer 9

i like it, i scared of it if i am by myself and late at night, but when it sunny and start it good.

Answer 10

i love it, but its the only thing to do once it's starts as it tends to touch down and not stay in the clouds, (cloud lightnings my favorite though)

never use a land line phone! and tirn off all your electricals from the mains!

Answer 11

I partially like lightning.

I like lightning because it is fascinating to study.

i don't like it because it makes the weather kind of rainy. so i don't like rainy weather.

therefore i am neutral

Answer 12

Yes

Answer 13

I hate lightening as a few years ago it struck the back yard wall and i thought the whole wall was going to come down, the crack was so loud. it scares the life out of me, the further away the better as far a i am concerned.

I don't mind thunder though.

Answer 14

I love watching lightning, it's fascinating.

Answer 15

i like both

thunder shakes everything which i like feeling the vibrations of

and lightning is just cool 2 look @

Answer 16

It is kind of fun to hear and listen to the heavy rains too, as long as I don't have to drive in it.

Answer 17

i dont really like it because i jump everytime i see it or hear it...and it scares me especcialy at night times
