Labor Day Lightning - Miami, Florida - September 6, 2010

[superearthbender]

I really miss the storms in Florida. The warm rain, high wind speeds, and dark blue sky.

Even the people are nice... at least.. they don't give a shit about you. And for some reason that makes a warm place in my heart for them. :3

thank you 

[MultiStorm15]

Crazy thunder!!! Awsome shot

[vmax135]

@MultiStorm15 Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the clip.

This video is so immersive its unreal! I was so engrossed in this video, with the rolling thunder and all. I just wish that constant hum wasn't there in the background. Takes away from the thunder. Other than that, I have watched the video countless times. It's mesmerizing. Thank you!!

UncleSlim: I was in Miami and Fort Lauderdale back in February of '98. My brother was living in Fort Lauderdale at that time. The weather wasn't that bad; except that Monday morning when it was raining. My father, my other brother, and I were in the airport terminal in Fort Lauderdale at the time. That Saturday morning, I was watching the Weather Channel at my brother's apartment and it was 47 degrees in Philadelphia (where I have lived all of my life) that day; while it was in the 70's there.

1:43 for creepy horror movie moment.

[bohrokthunder]

looks like the buildings are animated

[TheKorey15]

Florida is a shit whole.

[Razwell]

@TheKorey15

I agree. NO part of Florida is tropical. Belize, Panama, Manaus are all tropical . Miami is NOT.

[LineSquall]

Fabulous as always.

[Tstormer]

Tstorms are awesome anyways, but with the backdrop of a city...very cool!

[nanlisa]

Florida is called the Sunshine State. It should be changed to the Thunder, Lightining, and Hurricane State.

I was in Miami and Fort Lauderdale in February of '98. Don't take this personally, but I don't think I ever want to go to Florida again. I couldn't take summertime weather all year long. Give me the change of seasons here in Pennsylvania anytime.

[UncleSlim64]

@nanlisa I think it rather depends on what time of year you choose to visit. I went there once in mid-November 1992 and apart from the odd shower (not always accompanied by thunder and lightning) the weather was fairly good. Never too hot, just bearable. I know where you are coming from. I cannot stand high humidity either.

[moilman]

I had cousins in from LA visiting me in Miami and they LOVED this storm! Some tourists love our sun, these two loved our storms. Great clip...once again, thanks

[vmax135]

@moilman Haha... there should be an entire tourist industry in Miami just for storm lovers!

[Torn80cj]

What model camera are you using? The picture is incredibly clear. Nice video.

[vmax135]

@Torn80cj Thanks so much! This was shot on a Sony FX1000.

[Torn80cj]

[Jonasdearaujo]

Very nice lightnings!!! LOL Miami is the perfect city... beaches when it's sunny, and lightning show when it's stormy!

[vmax135]

@Jonasdearaujo Thanks so much, Jonas! Glad you liked it.

[huracanado1]

Michael GREAT footage, the quality is superb! That was one violent storm indeed,,, Florida Style!!!

[vmax135]

@huracanado1 Thanks so much, Jose! It was definitely nice to have something to film! lol

[webdeveloper007]

[vmax135]

@webdeveloper007 LOL... that is true... the weather in Miami is probably a lot more interesting than in Scotland. Glad you enjoyed the clip.

[wifiman1]

just as cool as the 7.1 earthquake that hit my city the other day in Christchurch

[cyclonejimcom]

Great video!! Was that from the FX-1000 Sony?

[vmax135]

@cyclonejimcom Thanks so much, Jim! Yeah, this was with the FX1000... I've been trying different shutter and exposure settings to see what looks best for lightning on this camera. These shots were done with the shutter at 1/30th.

[liquidstl]

Nice storm!  Great Shots!

[vmax135]

@liquidstl Thanks, Chris!!! It was definitely nice to have something to film... my SDS is really kicking in now...lol!

[SummerFoxie]

To be honest,you're my favorite thunderstorm video clip taker.I'm serious. You have an a-m-a-z-i-n-g quality and ..I don't know I just mean that it;s perfect! I see all lightnings! I love storms x)

[vmax135]

@SummerFoxie Thank you so much.... I'm really glad you enjoy all the videos! =^)

[UltimateChase]

Love it with the Skyline !

[vmax135]

@UltimateChase Thanks so much, Mike! The skyline is beautiful... I just wish the buildings didn't obscure the lightning so much... I guess I need to get a higher apartment...lol.

[ColMirage]

Cool!

I haven't had a severe storm over here for two years. Rage hard.

[vmax135]

@ColMirage Thanks...glad you liked it! I don't think I'd be able to go two years without seeing a decent thunderstorm...lol.

[real0988]

Beautiful Storm, Michael, has been a good show! .. this camcorder is impressive :)

[vmax135]

@real0988 Thank you so much, Roy! Hopefully one of these days I'll be able to get this camera in a big hurricane...lol.
