SuomiNature soundstwelve sounds in Hush.
Wind, weather and fire. These sounds change more over time than noise does: gusts rise and fall, thunder rolls in the distance, a fire crackles.

About these twelve
Half of Hush's nature sounds are winds, from the coast to the desert. The rest are rain, thunder, a snowstorm, a summer night and a quiet fire.
Across the group, the level between 2 and 12 kHz falls 4.0 dB per octave on average. Forest rain is the darkest: it falls 5.7 dB per octave. Autumn wind is the brightest: it falls 0.8 dB per octave.
All twelve are built from layers, which Hush Plus lets you balance.
The twelve sounds, darkest first
The shape is each sound's level in nine bands from 2 to 12 kHz; tilt is its slope. Negative is darker.

Can I change how much thunder I hear?
With Hush Plus, yes. Distant thunder is built from three layers (thunder, rain and wind), and you can set the level of each.
Which nature sounds are free in Hush?
None of these twelve is among Hush's six free sounds. They are part of Hush Plus, and Hush plays a short preview of a Plus sound before you subscribe.
How were these levels measured?
Each sound was measured in one-octave bands centred from 2 to 12 kHz, the range Hush uses for pitch matching. A level is given in decibels relative to that sound's overall level, so it shows the shape of a sound, not how loud it plays. The figures come from Hush 1.0.0 (9).
