I suddenly don't like the direction this thread might take, so here's an Israeli news flash for you:

It's 10:14 PM, it's dark, it's raining very hard, there are constant flashes because of lightings... and a really noisy thunder just scared the whatsitsname out of me.

Why don't you like the thread direction?

I love thunder and lightning Here in the summer we get some wicked storms, the winds get so strong that tree branches start blowing off the trees and such - I absolutely love it

Its funny, the weather here is crazy - but i don't think I'd change it for anything I love having super hot summmers, and snow at Christmas is the most beautiful thing in the world! I think an always warm climate would feel like I was missing out on something...maybe just because it's what I've always known

I don't mean to be a bummer, just saying drunk driving makes me sad I guess sadness is a bummer though, so you're right, nuff about that

In Winnipeg, we have extreme temperature, in the summers it gets to high 40s, in the winters we go to -40s hehe

Because we're located in the praries, there are no mountains or anything to really affect our weather, so when hot hits - it hits hard. Since we're in the middle of the country, we have to cooling breeze off the oceans or anything like that to save us. In fact our lakes generally just create a lot more humidity (and mosquitos) So we end up with very high, humid temperature - which feels a lot worse than when its dry, because the body can't cool itself as effectively. And in the winter, because its so very wide open - the winds get so intense, that when we talk about the weather we also have to add the 'windchill factor' which greatly ampliefies the way the cold feels against the skin.

Its crazy crazy

above 40 and humid? That's a real pain in the ... wherever the mosquitos bite you. In Israel we have either 30+ and very humid near the coast (where I live) which isn't good at all, or 40+ but dry (in Eilat for instance) which is actually quite nice.

In Greece we can get as high as 40 in some summer days and that's having the sea in some proximity. Last summer was a bit too hot, praise my ac for getting me through the (double)exam period

Yeah, it can be really awful - even with air conditioning the heat feels inescapable - usually the temperature is in the 30s, then you add the humidity - the 40's is really extreme and thankfully very very rare

I find the heat much harder to endure than the cold though, at least when its cold you can dress warmer, when it's that hot you just suffer

I agree. Heat is just intolerable no matter where you are - at home, at work, outside... it just drains the life energy out of you along with the sweat.

Yep, and the worst thing about the heat is that all you want to do is wear nothing but your undies, but that makes you very vulnerable to a Shadowcaster attack

Its funny here though, because all summer long people wish for winter, and then when it comes we wish for summer Hard to please us canadians i guess My favorite season is fall, I love the cool temperatures and the changing colours of the leaves.. though I do rather hate the raking

My favourite season is mid/late Spring. That's when the rains stop, but it's not too hot yet. And I really miss the colored leaves of Fall, maybe even more than snow, it was such a beatiful sight - light green, gold-yellow, blood-red, dark brown, everything mixed up together in a party of colors. Sadly, I didn't see anything similiar in Israel.

lol, I bet I'd find your 'cold' really nice right about now

I would actually love to visit Greece one day, so much history to experience, i love looking at photos but being there would be so much nicer

*** day in the life of Pandora update ***

Procrastination pays off big! I didn't go out and shovel, and my neighbor did it for me! Score! What a nice guy

Maybe you'll come this way sometime Praise the good neighbours! Unfortunately we had to deal with my uncle as a neighbour for the past three years. You do someone good by finding him a place to stay and then he does everything in his power to disrupt your life..

How so? Hell us more

In my life that's not been a problem - most family on my mother's side live in a small town about 1.5 hours drive from here, and I've never met anyone on my father's side of the family, though he tells me I'm the spitting image of his mother

Well, I don't think I want to spit on you or your mother... or your mother's image.

And now that I've said my foolishnes for today I can leave you two to discuss family problems and get some sleep. I have less than 7 hours until my wake up tommorrow already.

Oh, and I won't forget to check under my bed for any Shadowcasters, luckily I don't have a closet in the room... wait, I think that's for another thread.

If you turn off all the lights, then there will be no way to cast a shadow... unless the lightning flashes, then your undies may be in trouble

Goodnite, see you tomorrow

In some families some siblings choose to see the others as inferior when they don't fight back much. My uncle never saw my mother seriously but he was never the @ss he is today, it all began when we found him a place. All of a sudden he was like 'Forget what you knew, I take over.'

He wanted us to take a truck from near his parking because it was 'blocking his view'. View of what I never learned really. He brought us the police 4 times by exploiting a law that says you must be exactly 5 metres away from a parking space - 4 would not cut it - until my father calmly insulted him in front of the policemen. The coward did not even have the heart to reply and then he continued until he had brought the police 29 times for different reasons none of which were valid Heck we even became friends with the policemen who never did anything to us but were forced to come by the law until the head of the police station decided to check what is going on. Last time he called the police 5 times and even tried to close down my father's company.

We had to go through all kinds of bureocracy to find something that works to make him stop. And let me tell you that the outcome was painfully satisfying He won't be bothering us again any time soon.

We get big lightning storms all the time in Ohio. They are totally cool. My brother had a gf who moved here from California, and when we got a big storm she would sit there for hours watching the thing, completely mesmerized.

I had a hard time finding a vid with thunder. Lightning doesn't always have loud thunder, which is true of most of the Youtube vids. This vid has thunder, but it's very quiet, probably due to problems recording something that loud. Keep in mind that every one of those "pops" are loud enough to rattle the windows of your house.

Bottom line is that no video can do justice to a really big storm. They are just soooooo freaking amazing!!!!! But if you've never witnessed a big storm before, crank up the volume of this vid as LOUD as you can without blowing out your speakers - rattle every window in your house.....

For some REAL action, try it in a little 1 person tent sometime.
