    A thank you for 1k subscribers!
    4 years of living in FL left me with a huge collection of crazy thunderstorm videos, so I decided to clip out the best close ones. All of these were taken in East Central Florida, mostly at Florida Tech in Melbourne and my parent's house in Sebastian between 2016 and 2021.

    Hey Jason, I thank you for making me very homesick! I've been away from my home in the Melbourne/Palm Bay/Port Malabar area for 7 years now, and of all places, the coastal areas of Southern California!!! So, Ultimately boring!! I fully recognize what you have recorded on the couple video's I watched and I know what you adrenaline must have been doing to you. I moved to Clermont to Orlando, to Poinciana-Kissinger to Brevard County Titusville, Rockledge, Palm Bay, Melbourne and West Melbourne, Port Malabar, Indiatlantic, EauGalle Jupiter, Sebastian Inlet area on the beach side, Lakeland and Daytona for a while. All these locals I lived in spanned over 33 years of wonderful times most of the times. Never a dull moment with the weather, until winter season came along and then those "dry-months" took forever to get back into the first to third week of MAY and then it was explosive times again and boy are they EXPLOSIVE. I'd love to donate you a couple of my microphones that can generally handle the explosive concussion shock waves that are produced with the "high-octane" beefy lightning bolts that are supercharged and really vibrate everything inside and outside of your body! I always tried to get at ground zero, as it pertained to the lightning striking zone and would try to move along with it in a vehicle, but when I could get out and fully immerse myself underneath a highly electrified cumulonimbus cloud that i was trembling, all over my body. Because I knew how deadly serious certain things and places and areas I was in were, when mother nature let loose You have some tremendous sampling of a lot of unique and different thundering sounds. I really like that one that struck most likely towards the winding down period of the storm and was not one of the extremely overhead type close discharges. Rather the one I believe you ended two of the videos I was immediately absorbing int to ... I always called them anvil strikes, or pure ice crystal strikes, or out of the blue strikes, I just heard it again as the video is ending and your dog is barking and the thunder has bursting bubble like compression waves that burst like the sounds sometimes coming out of old pure jet engines and /or the Space Shuttle or other very large rock launches from the Cape. I picture in my head the compression or shock wave that was produced by a highly charged electrical discharge which produced a very large in diameter lightning bolt, maybe about the size of a football players lower leg, or the thigh and maybe 10 times hotter than the surface of the Sun. It reverberates and boom-boom-BOOM and just keeps popping and booming for somethings 30 to 45seconds and that a long azz thunder-blast. Coming originally from the California area with earthquakes, I moved to Florida just for the electrical daily summertime thunderstorms ONLY, back
    in 1987, February 14 Valentines Day is when I arrived on I-4 and passed right through the Orlando Downtown area and didn't even know it was Orlando, being use to the Los Angeles and Orange Counties in metropolisvruclips.net/video/GFVevf8SDrci/видео.htmllle Cali. Seeruclips.net/video/GFVevf8SDrcm/видео.htmld like it took forever to get from February to May of 1987 and web the atmosphere "turned-on" electrically. OMG!!! Was I in heaven it was mind boggling and I had studied atmospheric sciences at UCLA and got my degree in limescale phenomena. But that was 99% text book qualities, which was very helpful, but the real life adventures always grossly exceed any text book set up. Digital equipment like cameras microphones, cell phones, pc's and lightning detection "beeping" devices just were not available back then. But once there were in m homes in Florida, I would always disconnect the plugs every day when I went to work, because of the brown outs and other electrical "glitches" that could and would take place every day there in Melbourne in the summer. In fact, I went to FIT for 3 years, 1988 through 1992 for atmospheric sciences and being a pilot. I like how your home seems to be right beside, or actually underneath a high intensity power line grid system!!! Perfect icing on the cake for you or someone that loves lightning! A large amount of lightning is attracted to the wires and the actual structures that hold the power-line in place. Seemed like you are at ground zero almost with every storm that blows over your home. I even heard the electrical sizzling of the actual electricity or plasma of a dozen or so trikes you have. the Bzzzzz or more like an electrical grounding sounds in a way, a very deep subsonic rumbling zzzzzz . I could ramble on and on and on, but I will not, that would be rude and I may already be violating that now too with my excitement and length of my communication with you right now. Just be very, very careful , it just takes one shocking experienced i know you know and I will not any anymore to that, I'm NOT one who has a leg to stand on to say anything about lightning. Closest I've been to a discharge is 9 feet away, at Bab cock and Eber Road, in an apartment complex I lived in right to the north side of a Walmart store. I was out watching the the early morning tstorms roll in just at sunrise or soon thereafter, with an easterly onshore moist flow. I was in a lightning stance with feet together as one spot on the earth and I was not touching anything else so I was properly grounded to one spot on earth and no hair or anything was touching a wall or anything else except the atmospheric gases. It was a moderate popping lightning storm, slightly more powerful than the norm. As the gust-front blew through and the associated down pour with its apparently downdrafts and I was looking across the small 20 feet distance of the parking lot right in front of my Eber apartment porch at the backside of an Animal Hospital between me and the actual Bab cock street which had a lot of healthy, but young Pinion Pine Trees, when suddenly the discharge channel connected with the ground by using the tallest youthful thigh of a pine tree. The bright intense white flash of the lightning was brilliantly white with a slight purplish tenting to the blinding white first strike brilliantly white and blinding for a few moments. Instantaneously, the tree had all its bark blasted off it's trunk and then the tree splintered in two and crumbled into many dozen pieces of the once living human inside. the blasted off bark pieces was really beautiful and it looked like small snow flakes flowing down within the downdraft of the storm. The thunder was not the thunder I had always before heard and it was mainly felt in my abdominal area and the thunder head an extremely subsonic component to it Being 10 feet away from the strikes ground zero the thunder literally blew my clothing and everything at the exact same time, like a very strong blasting gust of wind. and at the same time a felt and heard the ultra subsonic bass rumbling and heard it echo off walls as it passed me with a more normal sounding thunder. When they strike right above you and are immeidately grounded or hits a lightning rod, all you hear is the electrical sizzling sound and it's somewhat quiet compared to the rest of the thunderous loud potential. I heard about 5 strikes over your screened in patio that produced everything I just mentioned barbecue it to was at ground zero often. I will end this now, it's too long, but I've noticed myself and became very homesick for Florida after watching 2 of your ideas. I do time lapses lately as my full time lobby, but weather has always been my fascination always from the very beig9nning of my life here on Earth.If you every need assistance with the proper benefits of cleaning up and enhancing the audio of your recorded storms, please let me know and I'd be honored to help you. I always have my rviile Take care, be safe and maybe sometime in the not too distant future ... we can meet up. Good world and I like your sound very much. Sleep well and goodnight If you are ever in Huntington Beach, or Sugarloaf, Big Bear Lake California, please let me mruclips.net/video/GFVevf8SDrcw/видео.html and stop by. My name s Kory and I'm glad to meet you . Talk to you again possibly a bot later.

    First, it is a partly cloudy sky, then one cloud begins towering into the sky and you see a downpour, and you see some lightning. These are hit- or miss in nature, but quite intense and you will get a soaking if you get hit by one, but it leaves very quickly. These storms usually happen in the afternoon, being caused by the sea- breeze as they push inland, somewhat like the Everglades, so I know what they are like. One time I drove through one and the wipers we're useless, but I was only in it for around 15-20 minutes and the sun was right there. When it rained in Florida, a lot of the time, I still saw the blue sky and some part of the sky, I did not when it was raining, so they are really fascinating.
