No, I've always been fascinated by it.  I have a nephew that is extremely frightened by storms, thunder and lightening.  He starts a panic as soon as the wind starts picking up.
Have a wonderful day!

No, I actually love storms.  I think storms are so cool to watch.  I especially enjoy when storms are coming in over the ocean.  Have a terrific weekend!

I'm so scared of lightning I take precautions.  I stay inside, away from windows.  Sometimes I hide in the bathroom until the lightning stops.  (My bathroom is in the center of the house and does not have windows).  If I had a basement, I would retreat there.  Storms can be very dangerous.  If lightning strikes a tree, branches could fall into the windows of your house.  This would shatter the glass and could casue physical harm to anyone near the window.  Lightning is dangerous and should not be taken lightly.  I hope everyone is careful and takes precautions.  After the storm is over though, there's usually  :peace: and sometimes  :rainbow:

Depends on how close the lightning storm is near my area... I live near a woody area so if it caught on fire, it will be devastating for people and animals around it... Other than tht the first loud out of nowhere lightning can be scary... But overall storm, it doesn't bother me

I am not scared of lightning, but I have a healthy respect for it.  I love to be at the beach and watch the lightning come down to the water.  I am of course sitting on the balcony of my hotel room, not on the beach.

It's never scared me, but I am cautious about going outside during storms.  I've always loved to watch them though

I have always been afraid of lightning. A fear I have never been able to overcome.
