During a thunderstorm you might hear rumbles of thunder and then spot lightning!
Lightning is a powerful electric burst that happens during a thunderstorm. Lightning is very dangerous. It can strike almost anything, even people! |
How is lightning created?
Have you ever walked on carpet with your socks and then touched a metal door?
This process is very similar to how lightning is created. Inside of a thundercloud there are little pieces of ice
and water that are bumping into each other.
