lightning causes crackle

[Wadula]

funny, there is a thunderstorm right in front of my place, like 2 or 3 miles away. everytime i see lighting striking down, my speakers crackle....scarry....

hehe...TX is pretty bad when it comes to thunderstorms. Are there a lot of that in Germany?

 

[Wadula]

btw, i am talking about the speakers here at home on my laptop, not car related

Well.. I am sure electromagnetic interference would be caused by a very large lighting bolt hitting powerlines somewhere in your electric gridline. If your speakers are wireless, it should be expected since lighting causes severe interference to the 2.4 GHz band... otherwise.. its anyone's guess.

yeah we have some nice tstorm in germany as well. although the name we have for it is far less dramatic. thunderstorm sounds really enormous. the first time i heard that a t-storm comes our wayi thought that i will see what ever, in the end it was a "gewitter" and i thought that´s it?

push, with the grid is surely the reason, but funny that the grid itself is so easy to be interferred.

Think of it this way - the grid is one GIGANTIC antenna and can pick up AND create (buzzing AM Radio) all sorts of interference.

i wonder that they don´t have filters for those peaks ....

How are the winters in Texas? Does it actually snow or get cold there?

yes very very cold and the roads turn into giant sheets of ice

 

[ResidentSlacker]

I wouldn't say that it snows here in Texas....more like sleet and everything gets covered in ice like hitman said....I think it sucks...I'd rather have snow

 

[Wadula]

worst problem here in texas is not the ice itself, but the low temperatures. that causes two things: 1st is that the humidity from the summer freezes in winter and it gets hard to breath through that ice and 2nd the engines don´t start anymore as the fuel freezez as well.

but i like to tan anyways
