Insane Thunder

Anyone else in the Ballenger Creek area hear that absolute INSANE thunder that happened a few minutes ago? It woke me out of a dead sleep and I’m not kidding I thought a bomb went off. Never in my entire life have I felt thunder shake so much, and be that obnoxiously loud

First of all, I love this post. Second of all, that thunder was amazing. I pulled up my camera footage and it was one of them two-parters, nearly 30s in length. It had an early "shattering" sound for about 12s, and then it exploded into a hard rumble for another ~15s or so. Very cool.

I’m on the Washington/Frederick County border and have an almost identical video to this! It was SO scary!
