Incredible Lightning Storm
View Original Description
Lightning is the visual evidence of the fury of Mother Nature that accompanies thunder as part of what is referred to as a “Thunder Storm”. Typically the product of cumulonimbus clouds, lightning is also known to be generated by other events, such as volcanic eruptions and dust storms. Perhaps the displays of lightning that are referred to as Cloud to Ground Lightning create the most dramatic visual effects while posing the greatest threat to living creatures at the same time. Cloud to Ground Lightning displays can present bolts of light that seem to travel many miles, dependent upon the height and proximity of the clouds from which they are spawned. Cloud to Ground Lightning can take on many derivate forms such as Staccato Lightning (short duration with very bright light) and Forked Lightning (significant branching of the bolt). There are a number of other types of lightning found all over our planet but Cloud to Ground Lightning is that which typically evokes the greatest amount of fear and excitement in the eyes of witnesses. Lightning Storms are able to be observed in many different parts of the world where violent weather patterns appear.
Lightning Storms can be beautiful while at the same time dangerous to watch from up close. It’s best to observe close-by lightning from an indoor location away from metal framed windows or doors. If you find yourself outdoors stay away from trees, or other tall objects. Avoid holding anything in your hand that contains metal of any kind.
Terrific Lightning Storms occur with regularity in the tropical regions of the earth. There are as many as 2,000 Thunderstorms generating lightning that are taking place at any given time all over the planet. Individual storms are known to generate as many as 40 to 50 flashes each second.
Add the Dream to See An Incredible Lightning Storm to your list and be prepared to experience nature’s light show when the opportunity presents itself. Watch the weather reports in the regions where you travel for the possibility of thunderstorms and then take advantage of the display when you find one. No doubt you’ll check this off your list sooner or later if you keep the desire in your conscious mind.
