Calm Before the Storm Ambience (New Version) | Distant Thunder | Warm, Balmy & Windy | 3 HOURS

- REMASTERED VERSION: You can find the latest version of this ambience here: • [Remastered] Calm Befo...
It’s a warm, summer evening, and a storm is approaching in the distance beyond the forest. The wind has already arrived, whipping up gusts of warm movement through the leaves. The atmosphere is balmy, there’s a lull and a heaviness in the air and the deep, distant rumbling is both soothing and powerful.
〰️
Due to popular request, I have created an alternate version of my original ‘Calm Before The Storm’ video, in a way that is entirely new and original, but addresses some requested changes. This version doesn't have the recurring "clicking" sound which bothered some people (which were tree branches creaking), and it is also a longer duration, for those wanting to use it to go to sleep.
This version features a brand new viewpoint of the scene, which shows much more of those glorious stormy skies and a little more movement in the trees and grass.
This project involved reworking everything in e-on VUE, then Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe After Effects, editing the new sound, editing the new video, encoding the new video and uploading here to CZcams.

🏝️ * How I make these videos *
You can watch the process behind one of my videos here: • How I make my ambience...
All of my videos are completely original and made from scratch. They take weeks to produce and are completed in different stages.
I create my 3D scenes in VUE - sculpting terrains, sourcing materials, modelling items, and placing them into the scene, adjusting lighting, angles, and other effects.
Once I’ve rendered the scene, I might use compositing techniques and other adjustments in Adobe Photoshop to add in new features. Then, I import it into Adobe After Effects, where I bring the scene to life with various animations and effects.
Next, I create a soundscape specifically for the atmosphere by combining several sounds together using a sound mixer, which involves applying various settings and adjustments.
Finally, everything is put together with video editing software and uploaded here for you to enjoy!

#ambience #relax #thunder - Zábava
PERFECT! The rain is a lo background and not a sizzling bacon BS. The wind rises and falls. The thunder rumbles and is realistic. Wonderful work.
Again, thank you so much.
@@balmycove😂😂🎉😢😢😂
Sizzling bacon bs 😭🤣 👏
@@timgora9116hes right tho😭
Oh my gosh Seriously! Sizzling bacon! That’s exactly what other “ambient storm” videos sound like. #nailedit
when people ask me what music I listen to I tell them "it's complicated"
I know, right? 😂 me too!
😂Yeah
lol, so true! 😅
Well, I consider that this is not music at all. Is more like... mmh "ASMR"? I am not sure, but is just owf, the best.
@@nhorajax6438 It's Recorded Ambient music.
This exact moment as a storm is approaching is my favourite feeling ever. Even your description of a 'balmy' wind... I knew this would be good! The increasing, warm wind, the rumble in the distance, the sound of nature preparing, the electricity in the air.. it's so calming for me. Thank you for this!
I'm so glad you like it! There is also a 12 hour sleep version of this one on my channel (same audio, just for longer and no animations and a darker screen). :)
ya.. the darkening.. the wind.. its the best!
I love rain , but thunderstorms like this with low rain is my favourite!
Most of all the smell is amazing.
@@phishcatt YESS!! it makes me relaxed.
this reminds me so much of my childhood at my grandparent's farm. Used to watch beautiful storm clouds approaching during dusk, and the warm breeze on my little face, with cold hints, smelling rain. Beautiful.
Aw isn't that just so special! Thank you!
That’s sounds so relaxing
Aww I want to feel that too...
How beautiful... I live out on a farm in rural sw Illinois. My main passion is storm watching. To feel the power of mother nature.. That exhilarating feeling when the front finally comes in with wind gusts so strong & thunder so loud it shakes your entire soul... Then the rain seems to wash away all your worries.. I live for that.
Finally I found one that actually sounds right
Thank you!
I grew up in the country so I remember this feeling. I miss the tranquility that nature brought.
All humans were supposed to grow up in the country my friend. We did for our first 2 million 990 thousand years but we've gone progressively astray ever since someone figured out how to grow more food than needed.
@@Nine-Signs 100% ❤️
@@Nine-Signsthe city and concrete makes me feel sick, I feel so much better and clear when i’m in nature
I can smell it, just looking at this 🌧️☔
Same
I know exactly that kind of scene in real life. A relaxing summer late evening that suddenly becomes chaotic, but in a good way. The smell, the energy... everything becomes alive, and we become so small.
It's the best atmosphere in the world - I love it!
I mean in nature. I am not talking up my own work as the best in the world, although I am proud of it. Haha.
@@balmycove Hahaha I knew how it was meant :-D
@@balmycove Btw, I don't know if you are familiar with survival horror games and the concept of "save rooms", but if you ever feel like collaborating, get in touch!
Omg yes
Sometimes its hard for us to realize how crazy amazing it is to be a human here on earth. Im sorry for the lives that never got to expirience the beautiful things in it. Be thankful and be kind, respect our home we call earth, live in peace in this world of bad men. Teach others to be kind, enjoy food and earths gifts to you. Feel the rain feel the sun. Touch the dirt and water. Hug someone you love, tell them you love them. Life is so short, and becoming old is a huge privilege. After this who knows, but you will never be on this earth as you are here right now, ever again. God bless ❤ smell the rain?
An underappreciated weather phenomenon.
I love the sounds and perspective on this - I can imagine I'm sat with my back resting against an huge old tree, sheltered and peaceful, watching the storm roll in. Just lovely.
Thank you so much!
I'd rather not rest my back against a huge tree with such a storm approaching... if you know what I'm sayin
I always dream of this. It is dusk and storm about to come. Living alone in quiet serene rural area. Before entering home, do a final rounding outside the house and check everything in place, secure and lock. Park the car into garage, garden tools into the shed, pet dog/cat is inside the home and keep the hanging cloths. Before entering the house, turn around a look into horizon, enjoy the view of coming dark scary storm, feel the breeze and take a deep breath. Do the rounding inside the house, doors and windows shut and lock and ready some emergency equipment. Everything is quiet for now. Boil some water and prepare tea/coffee and lit up the fireplace. Dog/cat on the couch, blanket on them. Turn on some dim light, put the smartphone away and do what you like the most. Reading/writing, working on hobby, crafting, listening to horror podcast, watching horror movie and so on.
Absolutely beautiful storytelling of the scene. You have a talent! Sounds like absolute bliss - the perfect way to spend an evening. I wish the storm was always coming and never arrived, sometimes.
@@balmycove Thank you very much. Your videos helps me calm every time and dreams all these blissful imagination.
great comment! very descriptive.. i bet you do this for a living lol.. you literally took my imagination to this exact scene!
Your description helped me visualize while I listened to the storm in the background. Thank you
the few hours in real life that rural people hade time for hobbies that not where practical , when nature declared you best have a prepared den to hunker down inside of or flying branches , hail or downpours soon teach everything why its best to respect mother natures raw forces as they rippled through her causing mighty storms over her hide , at best.. and those not heeding that respect often learning it at lethal expense
when the farmers could do little but sit in lamp light and carve wood pieces , or fix small things feeling the storm tug and pull in the house and barn ,waiting for it to pass so they could cheek what might been torn up or smashed as it roared

no its not...Goth Bosch incarnate ....march 21st 1965 to March 9th 2029.
Thank you love
Hippy. 😎
❤
I’m glad the rain don’t sound like TV static💀🤎💕
People always think I'm weird for thinking a thunderstorm is exciting but I've always loved them. Even something as terrible as a hurricane i find awesome and thrilling
Oh me too!!! Every time there's a storm warning I always start messaging all my friends haha.
they ARE exciting lol they're weird for thinking they're not.
Thx guys. And btw hurricane season starts today here in Florida they're expecting above average in hurricane activity this year
This is THE BEST storm sound I've ever found. Wind, thunder, the sound of grass! PERFECT! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I just published a remastered version, let me know if you like it better!
I can almost smell the ozone and the somehow suddenly much heavier scents of the flowers and trees in the air
This really is perfect! Not loud on the rain, a nice storm wind coming on, and the low rumble of thunder...nice depth. Reminds me of days in Oklahoma. All it needs are tree frogs!
Thank you! I love the sound of tree frogs :)
Best rain storms I lived they were out of okc.
This reminds me of some dreams I had as a young kid. Always brought peace when I thought about them
Can you tell me about your dreams? Just curious
@@aymanemach One dream specifically that this video touched on was when I was standing amongst rolling green hills with thunderclouds echoing in the distance. The rain was pattering on my shoulders softly as I stood in the stillness. I remember it to be something incredibly meaningful even to this day
@@Duster217 i had a similar dream when it comes to landscape. But it wasn't raining. However, there were giant white wolves running around in vast openness of the green hills, and they would chase me if they noticed me. Your could say mine was a nightmare, but yours is a very beautiful dream and indeed sounds very meaningful and powerful
@@aymanemach I think these dreams mean something in my life, perhaps even for you. I’ve spent so much time trying to think of ways. I always thought I was alone in thinking that I had these experiences. Thanks for sharing
it's so wholesome seeing this conversation
This is a kind of nostalgia I can't even begin to describe. This video is quite literally perfect ❤ I'm so glad that I found this!!
Thank you so much!
We recently had some big storms blow through, and it sounded almost just like this, with the wind picking up something crazy and the distant thunder rolling in. And then when the rain finally broke, it was so satisfying. Love this kind of weather.
I just want to remind you that it's perfectly normal to feel overwhelmed by life's pressures. We all go through these valleys, and feeling this way doesn’t mean you’re failing-it means you're human and deeply in tune with your journey. Remember, it's not about avoiding the storms, but learning to find peace even in their midst. You’re not alone in this. Whenever you need a shoulder to lean on or someone to listen, I'm here. Hang in there, and take it one breath at a time. You are stronger than you know, and this too shall pass. 💖
Apply your wise words to yourself as well :)) thank you for this I needed it!
how can i find peace among bad things
Living in the mountains, away from city and it's noise, sometimes looking out of my small wooden house and seeing clouds are coming, so I need to grab some wood pieces for the fireplace from outside. Making a tea and sitting on my chair and looking out of the window next to the fireplace. The window is open so I can feel the fresh breeze and hear the thunderstorm more clear :)
Love it!
Fell asleep while listening to this last night and had one of the most restful nights of sleep ever. I woke up this morning with more energy than I know what to do with. Thanks for posting. This channel is a godsend!
Oh I am SO happy to hear this! It warms my heart. Thank you!
I like people who smile when it's raining.
This is the best thunder ASMR out there. I've tried a lot. Thanks
This is it. This is what it sounds like.
THIS IS THE EXACT TYPE OF WEATHER AND SCENERY I LOVE. THIS VERY SPECIFIC ONE... HOW DID U KNOOWW😭
:) :) :) :) Thank you!!
Hard to find a distant storm video this good! Thanks a lot!
Thanks!
This sounds like I’m really there and it’s really happening. The rain isn’t like Falling gravel. It sounds like actual rain.
Subscribed!
Thank you soooo much!
Finally... that scape I can never describe to people but is my favorite thing to experience. Something about it still being bright and beautiful outside, but the darkness is looming overhead and the rain is slowly approaching. It's otherworldly. Thank you so much
I LOVE this kind of weather. This exact moment when the stormy clouds are approaching, the smell of petrichor wafting through the wind, the sound of distant thunder... So perfect. I love it.
The BEST kind of weather! Thank you.
Reminds me of my summer job as a wildland firefighter last summer. Sitting on a hill building sandbags with the boys in this beautiful underrated weather prepping for a rainstorm and possible flooding....
Wildfires are sooo scary. We have pretty bad bushfires in Australia sometimes. Thank you for your service! 9
@@balmycove They can get pretty dicy but its an adrenaline rush for us young college guys lol. I plan on doing it again once school gets out
Man, it looks amazing :D
I literally watch this video almost every day now. Perfect for keeping my attention problems in check while coding.
Oh that is so nice to hear. I'm glad it helps you to concentrate and focus. 🙂🌴
Thank you for providing this healing sound. For those reading this, I just want to let you know that everything is going to be okay. If you are going through a difficult time right now, it is only temporary and you can remind yourself that there are many good and comfortable days ahead. I wish you all the best, love and strength. Listen to this magical natural sound. Good night!
i’ve never clicked on an ambience video that made me sleepy within mere seconds of hitting play, this is magic
At home, sitting on the front porch as the storm rolls in
Eating watermelon with salt on it. My grandparents sitting there as we look out at the trees and the garden getting a good soak. Garden is gone. So is my grandfather. But me and my grandmother still watch the trees blow in the wind.
So clever!... It makes my brain believe it's 20° warmer than it really is here😮awesome
Thank you so much!
This channel is better than a doctors prescription ❤ 🏕 ⛈ 💤😴
I love these kind of sounds for study, relax, sleep.
Great sound mixing!! Nothing is over powering and it sounds authentic! Like i could actually imagine closing my eyes somewhere and hearing these exact sounds which a lot of ambience videos don't replicate very well. Subscribed 😊
Thank you sooo much :)
this is delightfully accurate. i can close my eyes and if i focus just enough i can almost smell the rain and feel the cool breeze that tickles my skin as i lay in the grass. thank you.
Thank you so much!
I love this atmosphere so much!! Just before it's starting...
The best part, hey! :)
This reminds me of sitting on my grandma porch in the county big yard big trees the storm approaching thats the best wind. Good Days.
Oh this is gorgeous 🌹
Thank you so much :)
Well. *THIS* is going straight into the playlist
this is strangely comforting when you have a migraine. thanks man
This is superb, thank you!!! Yes, it DOES take me back to those summer nights as a kid...
Best sleeping video on the CZcams so far....many thanks!
Wow, thanks! Really appreciate your comment 😊🌴
I like these calm little moments before the storm.
Wow, There's a storm coming, The sky is dark and The wind is blowing outside. This place is really nice, Thank you very much. 🙂👍🌫️🌫️
You're welcome! Enjoy the calm before the storm :)
That picture is my ideal weather. So peaceful.
this is straight up perfect, please make more lol
Thank you! I absolutely love making ambience videos, plenty more are on their way!
Sounds so real, I can feel the wind
I bet there's someone on the other side of the world listening to this at the same time you are, wishing for the same thing or for life to become better. You're not alone. You're not left behind. You are a late blooming cherry blossom that will someday burst with the brightest colors!!
I love this at my grandma house we would play out side then it turn cloudy but no rain thats the best wind ever.❤
Balmy Cove, your videos bring me peace of mind after long hours on the halls as a nurse. Thank you. I gave a few bucks earlier, but consider this ten dollars me buying you an adult drink to enjoy. Cheers. And keep creating.
It is the little details that matter most to those of us who know the meaning of discernment. ❤
Aw thank you so much! It is very much appreciated 🥹 I had a frustrating day or two wrangling a render I was almost ready to publish but not happy with, so I’ve decided to go back to the drawing board! Encouragement like yours keeps me going! I’m glad to hear my videos bring you some peace. Nursing is an extremely demanding and admirable profession!
This stormy breeze ambiance feels so genuinely real and perfect, I can practically smell the ozone, crisp wind and approaching rain through my phone screen! I have a hard time finding ambiances that manage to relax me, but this one made me feel content and cozy the second I put in on, which is a big accomplishment on your part! Amazing work, you did such a wonderful job on this video!! Thank you for sharing this with us, and pretty please never delete this or I’ll cry 😭💗🙌
Thank you so much! I don’t plan on deleting of course but if you want to be sure to own it forever you can download it on iTunes - I’ve only just got some tracks published there this week so go and take a look 😊 Thanks for your support!
@@balmycove Awesome, thank you so much!! 💖
This is a sound ambience I can FEEL.
I’ve always been kinda picky about rain and thunder sounds (mostly bc a lot don’t sound realistic or calming to me), and I’ve never found one as good as this one😃 Hits all the right points and very calming. On my speakers a little further away and lower volume, it really feels like it’s happening outside. Thanks for your channel, you have a new subscriber❤
Thank you so much. 😊😚
Well done Balmy Cove as usual. Can’t wait for more videos
Thank you Ethan! I have another one coming up shortly.
Whoever finds this comment, I wish you all have a good night :)
Mostly in the summer time we get these random storms and they clouds are so dark. Makes me think about being a kid outside and just looking up at the clouds in amazement. With the winds getting stronger and stronger. However, the storms don’t usually last too long. Wish they did.
Yes. Lots of wind, thunder and lightning then.....no rain!
I like how you have God's hands in the sky, reaching down as if to say, "Behold my Creation, with which I am well pleased."
I'm glad I found this. I love it!
Thank you! It makes me happy to hear that you love it 😊😊🌴
Love it!!
Thank you!!
This feels like windy nights at my cottage! It’s perfect💕
Thank you so much!
I just listened to all three hours of this while writing and was surprised when it ended. This was the most accurate and unique natural ambience I have ever heard, and the visual was perfect! It gave me some of the most beautiful setting descriptions for my story and I am very grateful for the inspiration. I'm going to hit repeat and listen to this for another three hours
I live in Laos. And I love this the sound of impending storm. It's like I'm in a cabin in the woods. Very therapeutic.
Thank you soooo much! There's a 12 hours version of this also on my channel ;)
@@balmycove Oh, thank you for letting me know! That's perfect
reading the stormlight archive series while listening to this and it is absolutely perfect
I'm so glad you're enjoying it! :)
Most videos/audios like this are so RAIN heavy and it's always too high pitched. This is PERFECT! Thank you!
Aw I’m glad you like it! Check out the 12 hour sleep version too if you like ☺️
This is gorgeous on every level ❤ I've tried so many thunder clips to help me sleep and none come close to this! Sounds very like the summer storms we get here in Australia 🇦🇺 thank you!
Thanks again Stacey, I live and create from Australia :) The only storms we've gotten so far where we live have been pretty sudden and extreme, so I am missing the gentle brewing of ones like these.
And I thank you for the new version , :D
A beautiful view that combines the beauty and majesty of nature with the sound of rain and thunder. A wonderful painting created by God. Always remember that tomorrow will be more beautiful
Thank you for such beautiful thoughts. God is great x
Dreams where a storm is forming in the distance whilst I am in warm water or in a cozy place are the best dreams I've had.
Absolutely the most realistic and balmy video I have ever seen! Excellent🌫🌩🌨⛈️
Thank you so much!
This is one of the best faraway storm soundscapes I've come across on youtube. However, I have to say... there are sounds every few minutes that sound DISTINCTLY like footprints walking toward you, and if you have anxiety, it can be pretty unnerving, especially if it is unexpected.
Yes! A few others have commented this - so I remastered the sound into a new version - czcams.com/video/nemk-SaDX64/video.html - enjoy! Thank you!
Fascinating!
Love all the detail you put into this 🥰
I love this! It brings back such pleasant memories of those bucolic, stormy afternoons I so enjoyed as a child living with my grandparents in the countryside. When the wind started blowing through the tree tops, Grandpa would say it was the trees whispering to each other, and when we heard a prolonged rumble of thunder, he would say it was the great corn wagon rolling across the sky. ⛈❤
Aw isn't that sooo special that this evokes such beautiful memories for you 🥹
absolute PERFECTION
Thank you 🥹
Love the soft rain sounds. Most rain is overpowering.
This video is a new favorite for me
I agree this sounds perfect and natural!
Thank you!
You see ... I fear the thunder, which is weird as i'm a grown boy, but the ambiance of upcoming heavy rain and lighting is just ... Nice. I keep remembering the scent of watery air as, when i was a kid, some of the darkest clouds flew over my appartement bloks and it started pouring nd thundering everywhere. Love this.
Thank you!
Thank you!
i can smell this video ❤❤❤
Yes! The ambiance I love
i am extremely picky with ambience and you absolutely nailed this i’m being so serious, brilliant work man 💛 thank you for this
Thank you so much 🥹
ohhhhhh i love this, such nostalgia
This is some award-winning ambience right here
Thank you so much!
Take this as a compliment. When I listen to this I think "ah, shoot. Better go and get the laundry in!"
Hahaha. Thank you!
This is my kind of weather! Thank you so very much!!!!!!!!
Everything I've been wanting
So niceeeee. Adding to nighttime playlist.
so peaceful 😌
Absolutely wonderful, I have sleep problems, by that I mean I only sleep 3-5hours a night , but last night I pit on my smart watch and I read 7hours, best day of the year for me .
Thank you so much♥️
Oh wow! That’s so amazing to hear ❤️🥹
@@balmycove thank you again♥️
I'm listing to this with classical music in the background on spotify whilst I work...This is truly a wonderful feeling that we all should experience. Thank you.
Ooh that sounds niiiice!
Literally a summer evening...
This is why im not afraid of storms, ⛈️ it makes me feel relax and stay calm, and all I loved to do during a thunderstorm is watch TV 📺📼 yeah!" 😁👍 that's it!'
The only thing that will make this video more interesting is adding some people distant chatter for some minutes. ❤ love it. Let’s try to sleep. Good night
Thank you! Check out the remastered version I just published. No voices, but I’ve removed the ‘brushing’ sounds. ☺️
