Sleeping through thunderstorms
Can anyone here manage it?
I never can, though that might be partly because they generally occur on muggy nights where it's hard to drop off anyway. -- Paul Hyett, Cheltenham (change 'invalid83261' to 'blueyonder' to email me) |

Apparently I used to, when I was a child. Can't do it now, cos I seem to wake up just before they arrive, probably my subconscious saying "There's a thunderstorm outside. Get up and watch!" :)) -- Rob Overfield Hull http://talkingtoomuchagain.blogspot.com |
Sleeping through thunderstorms
Felly sgrifennodd Paul Hyett :
Can anyone here manage it? Yes, often. I've been known to sleep through loud overhead thunderstorms. However, living where we do now, we don't get many thunderstorms, so I haven't had much chance recently to see if I still do.

I can't remember the last thunderstorm around here that didn't happen while I was awake. The last thunderstorm that I remember while I was trying to sleep was in southern Idaho when we were out camping. You feel very prone when there's just a flimsy bit of canvas between you and rain, hail and lightning. Suffice to say I didn't sleep very well! -- Jonathan Stott Canterbury Weather: http://www.canterburyweather.co.uk/ Reverse my e-mail address to reply by e-mail |

Hi Paul,
Nope I love them too much. Faintest rumble and I'm awake, curtains drawn, ready for the off! We don't get that many in Haytor but boy when they do come the thunder is often very very loud. Strangely heavy rain wakes me too, and I should be used to that living here. Even more strangely snow also wakes me, perhaps I detect the subtle change in humidity. Wind, however, doesn't as a rule unless it is really strong. The 1987 storm *did* wake me, but that might have been the sound of the willow tree crashing onto our house in Crowthorne! As for mugginess, well for me, that is now a thing of the past :-) Will (Haytor, Devon, 1017 feet asl) -- "Paul Hyett" wrote in message ... Can anyone here manage it?

There was a bad thunderstorm at Bournemouth in August 2002. I was there on holiday, when the TS came over the thunder caused me to go into type of sleep were I could half hear the thunder and rain hitting the windows, I dreamt about cannons and water !

According to my wife I've slept though some very noisy thunderstorms. OTOH, I can't sleep near a ticking clock. -- Steve Wolstenholme Neural Planner Software EasyNN-plus.
