This dream has a similar meaning as the "Kevin dream". We again have symbols for the unconscious and emotions (basement/dark - rain/storm). In this dream however, it is indicated that you are aware of these "horrific" emotios that are "pouring" forth from the unconscious, that you "see" them (looking out windows).
The kids are upstairs because they are your "top" priority, they are your first concern and you wish for them to be as unaware of the threatening situation as possible (dark/sleep).
You are concerned about your life situation - the way you live (living room) is at risk or is threatened to be destroyed. You are concerned about how you will escape the situation. The baby is some new or undeveloped thought/idea "born" out of this stormy situation which you wish to save and nurture/develop (mother).
The lack of male figures, like a father or husband, is also rather telling. Like the other dream, this is the type of energy that is missing in your life, in a positive sense - it is what you lack and what you need.
