My entry into the "thunder club" :-). This strike was very close and shook the house. Recorded with a digital camcorder sitting in an open window. The rain was coming down very hard, very close to the camera. See video frames of the flash at http://www.flickr.com/photos/70097310@N00/ The entire recording from the window can be heard at http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/samplesViewSingle.php?id=25022. Thinking that the sound of the rain on the roof outside the window was too loud, I moved down to the porch - http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/samplesViewSingle.php?id=25033

  very cool sound !!

  also - I suggest that we keep giving credits in comments too - whenever we use a sound ... and (towards site editors) these credits can also become a new item in the main menu ...
