I used to believe that the clouds moving was caused by the spinning of the Earth... that the clouds stayed in one spot.

I used to believe that if you poked a cloud with a really long stick rain would come out.

When I was 4 or 5 there was a stormy night where my mom got us up out of bed to take shelter. She turned on the radio and they were saying "This is a tornado warning." I figured that a tornado warning was the authorities warning the tornado that it better not come into our city.

I used to think that clouds would part over roads during snow storms. The clouds around the edges of the holes would group together and snow more, therefore creating the big piles of snow along the roads

I used to believe planes going through clouds are what made it rain. I was really disappointed to see no rain or thunder the first time I remember being on a plane.

When I was a sprog, I used to think that Rainbows were painted in the sky by magic fairies

I used to think that the sound that you hear when a jet flies over you was made by the clouds moving in the sky!

I used to believe that I was the only one who could see the clouds move because God was trying to talk to me.

When I was little, I used to believe that if there wasn't a cloud over my area on the weather forecast, then there'd be no weather for the day.

My best friend used to believe that when it rain and thundered that God was flushing his toilet.

When I was about in grade 2, I used to believe that I could control the wind by singing. I thought of myself as somekind of goddess. I had even convinced other kids in the school yard that by singing I could make the wind blow.

I used to believe that when it rained, the people in heaven were all taking showers. I believed that they had showers made out of clouds, and that as they showered God would watch them making sure they didn't waste too much water. So rain drops were special, because they had touched the bodies of relatives who had already died.

I used to believe that a tornado was the Big Bad Wolf (from Three Little Pigs) driving around in a police car. Living in Kansas, we had quite a few tornadoes... One, in particular, came pretty close to our house. When the warnings were issued, my mom called me in from playing outside, but before I could go in I had to go to the end of the driveway and look down the street for the "tornado". I told my mom I didn't see it coming, but had to go in anyway. Imagine my surprise when I saw the real thing!

i used to think that mother nature was a real person

When i was about 6 years old, i thought God was washing his"LEGO" town, when it was raining here.

When I was younger, my mom has dumped out some of those flat marbles that you put in fish tanks to make it look pretty in the backyard. A few years later I was playing back there and I found one. It had been hailing earilier that day, and I thought it was a colored hailstone that hadn't melted yet. I stuck it in the freezer.

A few days later, it was gone.

I thought my cat ate it.

My dad had me convinced that dark storm clouds were actually webs for monstrous "cloud spiders." The first time I flew straight into one of those clouds as a kid (dad was a small-plane pilot), I was terrified and convinced we were flying into a web. Dark clouds still freak me out.

Back in kindergarden, my friend and me used to run after snowflakes, yelling at them. We imagined they would get frightened and thus multiply to "defend" themselves. And that was just what we wanted - the more snow, the better.
