As dangerous as it is, on the other hand, it's definitely exciting. You just have to be really careful how you drive when chasing a storm. You always have to drive to the side of the cell and never towards it. My husband has already learned this the hard way when lightning struck next to him because he didn't notice that another storm was also approaching from the other side. But it's a great hobby for the two of us :)
We're used to storms around here. Usually, it's just very hot during the day, but storms often show up in the evening. Lately, things have been tense. Last time, there were severe floods nearby, and behind our house, even trees collapsed. There's always something happening, but we're used to it by now. Is nice to see lightning, especially when the storm is very close :)

Do you get a lot of storms where you live? I would be afraid to be so close to one.
