5.0 out of 5 stars The power of a thunderstorm caught on CD, August 26, 2000

By	SouthGenie (Charlotte NC, USA) - See all my reviews

OK, thunderstorm lovers, this one's for you. This is just like listening to the real thing. I grew up in the Northeast, in a place where thunderstorms don't tend to signal floods or tornadoes, so I do love the sound of them myself. When I get some home alone time and I just want to read and have some background sound going without words to interrupt this is one of my favorite CD's to listen to. It's actually managed to confuse my neighbors too. Once, my upstairs neighbor came outside with an umbrella, very confused to to see a clear, moonlit night when she swore she'd heard rain and thunder. There are some very loud thunderbursts, making this CD hard to go to sleep to. If that's what you want it for then I'd recommend their Tropical Rain Forest CD which is much gentler.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best I could find...only one complaint, April 20, 2001

By A Customer

This cd is what I was looking for as far as the intensity of the storm is concerned. The thunder sounds real and can be loud at times. The only complaint I have is that there are periods of just rain that seem rather long for my taste. I've been trying to find a recording of an intense storm with frequent thunder. This has the intensity, but not quite the continuous thunder I was looking for.

4.0 out of 5 stars Authentic, with no music., June 24, 2001

By	June "Junebug" (Port Charlotte, FL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a very realistic thunderstorm recording with no distracting music. There are some loud thunderclaps, so it's not one to help you sleep, and there are some long stretches of rain with no thunder, but that adds to the authenticity. I play this while hanging out at the house for a relaxing, lazy day and it creates great atmosphere.
