I love thunderstorms.
I guess it’s just the meteorologist in me.
I have been in a vehicle when it was hit, also my parents house was struck (luckily by a 'cold bolt') when I was around 10 or 12 years old. It blew all the plastic covers off the light switches and then rolled across the living room floor in the form of a big blue ball of fire . . . and then exploded in the fireplace with a big wet "POP!"
It was actually pretty cool and happened so fast there wasn't time to be scared. But it freaked out my parents' cat, who wouldn't come out from under the bed for HOURS.
