It's spring and that means you'll be seeing a lot more thunderstorms! Thunder is an amazing sound and lightning can be a beautiful sight, but it can be scary when a strong storm rolls in. Not to mention, some thunderstorms can be severe weather events. In this episode, you'll hear a funny story about Mrs. Cindy and her fear of thunderstorms as a kid, and you'll also and learn a fascinating weather science fact about how to track a thunderstorm.
