RE: jack stands

You'll be ok. A thunderstorm should not do anything to the stands.

Just to make you feel better. I had a car up on four stands on grass, gravel, and wood for two weeks...during a hurricane. Not the brightest thing but didn't pose a problem at all.

RE: jack stands

as long as it doesnt move when you give it a little shake it should be fine.
