I'm from the prairies. Personally I don't feel claustrophobic but big wide open skies are something I miss when I'm elsewhere, and feel happy to return to. It really is kind of special, though I'm sure most visitors don't even notice.
Prairie thunderstorms are also kind of amazing. Though my perception is they're getting rarer and shorter.
- tlavoie 4y agoOh, I do miss a good thunderstorm. The roof hail damage, not so much.

I did a lot of camping as a kid in during the summers in Kansas and had the "pleasure" of riding out many a thunderstorm huddled in a tent (or in a concrete latrine if there was hail/tornados). Several years ago, I once again found myself camping in a raging prairie thunderstorm (thanks to being more focused on the girl I was with than on the forecast) and the experience was surprising familiar... Oh well, she ended up marrying me, so worked out in the end!
