Explanation:

Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is an adventurous tale of a young, free-spirited boy named Huckleberry "Huck" Finn and his experience in trying to live his life the way he wanted. The entertaining tale follows Huck and his friends on their 'journey' of life.

Based on the given excerpt, we can see that the narrator Huck seemed unfazed by the storm and thunder. He simply describes the events outside the cavern, nonchalantly stating that "Pretty soon it darkened up, and begun to thunder and lighten; so the birds was right about it. Directly it begun to rain, and it rained like all fury, too, and I never see the wind blow so. It was one of these regular summer storms." He also stated how "the rain would thrash along, [. . .] a blast of wind that would bend the trees down..."

But despite all these events, he simply stated that the storm was "one of these regular" ones. This shows that he is unconcerned about the storm.
