green_laughI have to wonder if those "storm chasers" got glamoured by the storm itself.
thunderstorms
I was not outside at the time. The furthest I went was the porch, and then near the door by the porch. I have to look it up again, I do not recall the exact numbers, but tornadoes, while obviously smaller than hurricanes, have much stronger winds. I call Hurricane Charley the story of the hurricane that wanted to be a tornado, as he was unusually small and unusually powerful, plus he traveled unusually quickly and unusually far inland. Did I mention he was most unusual?
It's like walking down an empty street, listening to your own footsteps. But all you have to do is knock on any door and say, "If you'll let me in, I'll live the way you want me to live. And I'll think the way you want me to think." And all the blinds will go up, and all the doors will open, and you'll never feel lonely. Ever again.

Heh,Heh,wind....................love it. Any storm is pure energy,at it's max. Rainstorms here in Winter get pretty wild. It can be exhilirating to get caught in one. I live in an area that gets seasonal thunderstorms -they are the best. We get a clear distance view for miles around -I get psyched for days.Any one else get their hair standing up when one is overhead?
Yip, I always get the hair standing on end.. Especially if a big storm is brewing. Also, you'll sometimes notice a slightly 'metallic' taste / smell in the air.. Hard to describe. Almost like licking a piece of metal, or an almost dead battery.. If that makes sense? Haha
I believe both of these effects are from the natural build up of electrical charge in the air around you.. Least, that's what I remember from Physics. *shrug*.
Either way, I love storms. Can't get enough of em
. The tension in the air before, the spectacular lights and sounds during.. And the exceptionally clear and fresh atmosphere afterwards. Love it!

Interesting theory! They certainly seem obsessed enough to be glamoured.
I can echo being energised by storms. I don't feel any physical effects, but one annoying side effect is that if it's stormy, I can't sleep! I simply won't be tired. I've spent entire nights reading, writing and even getting work done about the house simply because a storm is raging outside and I feel as awake as I would in the middle of the day.
A question: One guy I know finds that storms, especially thunderstorms, make him frisky. He thinks it's a guy thing, since he knows a few other guys it happens to but no girls - although at this stage his girlfriend is pretty much conditioned to respond the same way! I'm just curious if any of the guys (or girls!) here experience the same effect?
