    Um, excuse me. Thunderstorms are amazing! I’ll take a good thunderstorm everyday of the summer over the heat and sun

      The problem I have is that my lease requires me to keep the lawn mowed. Between work and thunderstorms keeping the grass wet, it’s hard to find a good time to take care of it.

      Every time there’s a thunderstorm, a town or city floods. Infrastructure is not built for the kinds of rain we’re seeing now and it used to be so rare it wasn’t an issue. Now everyone is scrambling to build water handling systems.

      My probtis i love in a tiny apartment with two cats. My windows were kept tight to keep on the pitiful amount of cold air from my window unit, but not being able to open the windows at night means my timy apartment starts to smell like cat real fast

          Well in the event that you have to leave the house at specific times, which I do, I’d say yes it is a negative. Having fun outside with friends or family like going on hikes, swimming in a lake, picnics and such are also significantly less safe during thiunderstorms and yes, I enjoy those activities so it is a negative for me.
