Been there, done that... Doesn't work for me either.

Somehow that's never a problem for me. Maybe I worry and sleep light in those circumstances.

I used to be the same. I slept through this: British Weather: Hurricane of 1987 - YouTube[^] and didn't even know it had happened until I tried to get to work the next day.

I usually sleep through storms too, although we've never had such a heavy storm 
At school camp my roommate went sleep walking. He woke up in the middle of the terrain in only his sleeping bag. The doors to the cabins only opened from the inside or with a key. He banged on the window so I'd let him in. Ultimately a teacher had to open the door for him because I didn't wake up. The next day he was so pissed at me for not letting him in. I was the only one of over 100 students who didn't know what happened

Gee, that brings back memories.
At school-camp in yr7 we all took off to sleep in the cabins the school owned out in the bush. I was lucky and got put in the cabin with all the other jokers and we had a fine old time. Come night 2 and we're woken up in the middle of the night by Tony, who's clutching at his throat and doing his best impression of Darth Vader as he repeatedly moaned Help Me, Help Me.
Bugger off mate, it's not funny - we're trying to sleep.
Funny thing was we couldn't see Tony the next morning, asking after him we learned he'd been evac'ed overnight since he'd been stung in the throat by a wasp. Everyone else seemed to know this already except for our cabin.  
Er.. ah.. Sorry Tone. Are you okay?

Double their intensity and I will still be able to have a "peaceful sleep".

... but it never gets to go off, except in winter.
When the sun is up, so am I - I set an alarm so that Herself is certain to get up on time: she doesn't like to get out of bed at the best of times!

Not if you refer to her as "herself", except possibly for the peace and quiet he gets by arising early.
