📋 About This Mod
I created this for my own personal Morrowind modding project. It's more realistic to what a thunderstorm would sound like in an environment. I gave it a lot of space. I recorded several storms moving through my area. Some were miles away in the distance. Others were closer. I recorded for hours and edited accordingly.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tight integration with the author's rain mod—if you use that, this is a no-brainer
- Lightweight audio swap, won't tax your load order
- Decent community traction for a niche audio mod (46 endorsements)
⚠️ Cons
- Only replaces thunder—if you want a full weather overhaul, look elsewhere
- Requires the ambient rain replacer for the full experience, so it's not standalone
For Morrowind players who already use Aaron's ambient rain replacer and want matching thunder sounds. Skip if you're looking for a complete weather overhaul or don't care about audio immersion.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Wrye Mash or Mod Organizer 2, just drop the mod in and activate—no load order tweaks needed for sound replacers.
- Pair this with the ambient rain replacer for the intended effect; using it alone will leave rain sounds vanilla.
- Make sure to back up your original sound files if you're manually installing, so you can revert if you don't like the new thunder.
