Yeah, when I lived back in Texas, for some reason my .. entire town seemed to have faulty freaking power things outside, so every time it'd rain one would blow up.

I actually was awoken by one blowing up in the backyard and then looking out to see that the tree in the backyard was on fire.

Other than that, when my sister lived at Kileen, we could hear the tanks going off from Ft. Hood. Really tank fire and other boomy sounds are normal from me, because I visited a lot of army bases because of my sister.
