16/06/20. Rolling thunder in Herefordshire.

Thunderstorms are not very frequent in our part of Herefordshire. But last month (16/6) we had one that lasted for over an hour. It starts very quiet, and grows in intensity as the storm comes nearer.

The recording begins when the weather is still quite clear and the plants are full of bees. Birds remain active throughout most of this recording, even when the storm is very close and the rain is coming down hard.

I live in Herefordshire; just on the Welsh border. I have been enjoying hiking, gardening and photography for many years; and have just started learning about field recording. It is really enjoyable and becoming completely absorbing! View all posts by durleyrose
