Just encountered the coolest thunderstorm early this morning!!! It woke me up at 2 a.m. and again at 4 a.m. because of thunder and lightning crackling and booming right over my apartment complex. The rain was coming down in SHEETS!!!! It was pretty cool!!!!!!! Loved every minute of it...
The funniest part of all this was hearing all the car alarms go off in the parking lot after every thunderclap and hearing the neighbors above me (I'm on the first floor)go outside to quiet the alarms.
