Direct mp3 download or play: Thunder June 21, 2009
Here is a little thunder I recorded on Sunday afternoon June 21, 2009. The first rumble was the loudest, and in spite of the record level on my Sony PCM-D50 being around the mid point (5 or 6), clipping was indicated when I transferred the file to Adobe Audition. I used “clip restore” to fix the distortion, which incidentally I couldn’t hear anyway. I know this thunder isn’t much compared to storms in the Midwest, but I thought it had kind of a nice ambience along with the other sounds around my house in Seattle. I’ve included a few photos of the sky conditions around the time of this recording as well.
A bit out of focus, maybe.

We had a giant party outside the next day and it only rained sporadically, thankfully.
are those parakeets in the background?
almost sounded like a scolding.

At first I thought that was a rhodie in the picture. Now I cannot tell. I think someone was mean to it. Needs tending. All your rhodies, azaleas, and camelias should be pruned by Independence Day, after that do not cut on them until after Halloween. PNW gardening rules for you. Californian.
Peace.
i posted my comment on the Prell chunklet instead of this one.- I want to request the outside mics mixed with police calls from the 4th of july as your next post.
I’ll accept less though.
Also, can you make a good headphone cable?

Im in Vegas, waiting on a thunderstorm. Current temperature is 92 and 30% humidity. Lots of moisture from the south.
There was a tropical storm just before I got here (quarter sized drops and over 100 degrees at night.
Hopefully I can get a lightening photo/video tonight..
Thank You all for commenting. I’ve been a bit lazy the last month and I had a problem with a squirrel.
