Ok my electricity is flashing, the wind is going crazy, rain is slashing against the windows. (see details)?

I'd go duck and cover.  But that's the safety side - now, really, what I'd do is go check it out (like a stupid idiot, anyway) and marvel at the forces of nature really whippin' things about and perhaps seeing funnel clouds, hailstones the size of buckets, and witches on brooms....  and trying to click my heels together before the whole house goes up into the haelstrom - or at least hopin' I can get inside my friggin' house before anything REALLY happens......

sounds like there is a faulty ground somewhere in the system.  have there been any recent lightning strikes (could cause an intermittent short).  Also, be sure to verify that you have a good earth ground inside your house.

Yes it is! i had this happen to me while living in an older house. Contact your electric company asap. I didn't and was liable for the extra on the bill. They told me that whenever you notice a problem, report it soon.  You'll save money but be out of what you've already used.

We are having bad storms tomorrow too so a few things I would do is make sure you have an area to hide, clean and ready, have shoes ready, and have a radio or t.v. ready to find out information...

Yes because sometimes lighting can get through the electric lines and damage your PC if the building does not have proper "earthing".  Safer still, after turning off the computer, remove the plug from the socket too. Replug only after the storm has gone

My heater isn't on right now.\nMy mother thinks 58 degrees is tropical.\nSo I'm wrapped up in a blanket as I write this.

Only the Electric Power Company can answer this.\n\nAssuming your inforrmation is correct, and this involves RAIN only, not high wind, it is possible there is an Underground Line that shorts out.\n\nWhatever it is, it sounds like something that can be fixed, but this will only happen if you organize the members of the community and invite the Power Company representative to meet with them and explain why this happens.\n\nMake sure the TV News crews are there.

Your computer recieved a power surge via lightening or a spike caused by a power outage.

Yeah! I love em. I'm a weather freak. I'll stand outside until it starts hailing hard or I'm gonna get struck by lightning. But if they're at night when I'm trying to sleep, and I can't see much, it's not so fun. Especially if hail is hitting your window with 60 mph wind gusts. when I get out on my own, I wanna be a storm spotter

Could be. You might also feel a tingling in your feet or on your body. If that happens, if your hair stands or you feel tingling outside, esp. when the conditions are right for lightning, HIT THE DIRT! That could make the difference btween living and dying.

I love thunderstorms. I just like witnessing the awesome power of nature come rolling over the treetops. It usually also starts to cool down when one is approaching.
