Do you ? (lighting storms )

Snowie

get affected bye Lighting storms ?

now to most people this may sound strange but there a lighting storm just passed us headed for dublin fork lightning to so extra levels of coolness :cool:...
But i find that lightning or thunder storms give me increased pressure on my head I get noise bleeds headaches dissoreinated, happened since i was young does it happen to you ?

Not asking for medical advice just curious to see if there are any other people like that.

nope! i love the sensation of seeing the cool lighting and the feeling of....insignificance!

but i hate being outside in it

Yeah I feel the increased pressure in my head too, I think maybe it's caused by static electricty or something like that.. the same that can freak out dogs during a thunderstorm

ejmaztec

I have a strange desire to stand on the roof and wave a big metal rod whilst screaming "Come on you bastard, if you think you're hard enough!"

Apart from that it has no effect on me whatsoever.

Whispered

yep I get a dull throbing pain in my head and a stuffy feeling.

The pressure in your sinus is slightly different to normal atmospheric pressure. Some people can predict the weather by it

I feel it in my fingers,
I feel it in my toes,
bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bahhhhh

Don't get nose bleeds but can get headaches and dizziness as the change in pressure effects my sinuses, but the drop in temp is great.

I get awful headaches before a storm. Im both in awe and scared shitless of lightening.

I love lightening. Haven't got it in ages but if I recall I suffer no effects.

*eadaoin

think that storm must be over dublin at the moment, there's an amazing purple/orange sky & reckon i saw a flash over the north/west.

Thunderstorms are class

Gotten alot here in Cleveland recently, practicaly every time it rains is a thunderstorm.

Usually you get the cool forks in the distance and then rumble. But woke up one morning and went out on the balcony shielded from the rain to watch the show. Sat in me deckchair and lit a smoke.

****er cracked right overhead with instantaneous explosive thunder, nearly knocked me off the chair.

Went inside after that....

karlog

I heard a guy who got struck by lightning 7 times in his life and lived.
Lucky or unlucky?

Dartz

I once climbed up on the roof.... during that lightning storm that lasted 2 days, about 6 years ago. Lay back watching it all crack off above me for hours.

Only realised afterwards how stupid I'd been to use an aluminium ladder...
