Over my storm chasing career as it were, I have had a couple close calls with lightning. Not that Im upset or scared or anything like that. It is, after all, what Im after. But I thought I would post up the sounds of the strikes. The closest strike I have ever had to me was probably in the neighborhood of 150' maybe less. The others have been not much further away.
The first link is to an audio file I have on my site and is the closest I have ever physically been to a lighning strike. I almost caught it on film. It was just a few feet out of the field of view.
These are new, but Ive been in the process of going over several hours of storm audio trying to put together some sounds and what have you for a screen saver I am making and thought I would share.
Enjoy.
