Is it normal to be scared of storms?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, being scared of storms is normal. Thunder, lightning, and not knowing how severe a storm will get can feel genuinely unsettling.
Lots of people feel nervous during storms, especially when thunder is loud or lightning is close. It doesn’t mean you’re being silly; storms can be intense, and feeling safer indoors or checking a reliable weather update can help.
If the fear is so strong that you can’t sleep, leave home, or get through ordinary activities, it may help to talk it over with someone you trust or a mental health professional. Otherwise, being a little storm-shy is very human.
