Thunder & Hard Rain

2016 09-19 Thunder and Hard Rain turning to winter

Where I live, when the seasons begin to shift from summer to winter, the first rains of fall are hard.  For a few years I wanted to capture this .  On September 19th, 2016, just as I began to hear a rain storm start, I ran and set up my Zoom H2n.  What I caught proved to be pure luck!  I wanted the hard rain, what I got was an aural arc — rain starting, turning hard, thunder, and ultimately the rain dropping off to a gentle fall.

This was a good week for AOR recording because I also caught the Water Drums recording on September 26th in North Bend — which I wanted to get for easily 10 years.  Now that I have my first recipe book completed and published there are a number of AOR albums I have lined up to finish — these are chief among them.

These are not actual pictures from the session —
I just found them online …. but, man, don’t they look COOL!
