Dangerous Lightning Thunderstorms, Lightning and Hail Lightning Strikes! Lightning and Thunder Lightning is a Killer! Thunder and lightning occur together. The light reaches you at once. Sound takes some time to reach you. Usually you see the lightning stroke before you hear the thunder. As soon as you see lightning, count the seconds until you hear the thunder. If there are 5 seconds, the lightning was about a mile away. (Sound goes about 1000 feet a second). In metric, if it takes three seconds to hear the thunder, the storm is about a kilometer away. If you see lightning and hear thunder at just about the same moment, watch out. The storm is right above you, only a few hundred feet away.

http://thunder.msfc.nasa.gov/primer/primer2.html
Page 1 Characteristics Page 3 Characteristics of a Storm LIGHTNING
As the ice particles within a cloud (called hydrometeors) grow and interact, they collide, fracture and break apart. It is thought that the smaller particles tend to acquire positive charge, while the larger particles acquire more negative charge. These particles tend to separate under the influences of updrafts and gravity until the upper portion of the cloud acquires a net positive charge and the lower portion of the cloud becomes negatively charged. This separation of charge produces enormous electrical potential both within the cloud and between the cloud and ground. This can amount to millions of volts, and eventually the electrical resistance in the air breaks down and a flash begins. Lightning, then, is an electrical discharge between positive and negative regions of a thunderstorm. A lightning flash is composed of a series of strokes with an average of about four. The length and duration of each lightning stroke vary, but typically average about 30 microseconds. (The average peak power per stroke is about 10

What is lightning?
Lightning is a bright flash of electricity produced by a thunderstorm. All thunderstorms produce lightning and are very dangerous. If you hear the sound of thunder, then you are in danger from lightning. Lightning kills and injures more people each year than hurricanes or tornadoes; between 75 to 100 people.
What causes lightning?
Lightning is an electric current. Within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice (frozen raindrops) bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge. After a while, the whole cloud fills up with electrical charges. The positive charges or protons form at the top of the cloud and the negative charges or electrons form at the bottom of the cloud. Since opposites attract, that causes a positive charge to build up on the ground beneath the cloud. The grounds electrical charge concentrates around anything that sticks up, such as mountains, people, or single trees. The charge coming up from these points eventually connects with a charge reaching down from the clouds and - zap - lightning strikes!
Have you ever rubbed your feet across carpet and then touched a metal door handle? If so, then you know that you can get shocked! Lightning works in the same way.

NOTICE: Version 4.1 of LIS data is now
available. More information Within the Global Hydrology and Climate Center ( GHCC ), there is a group of researchers, mostly scientists and engineers, who collectively form the GHCC Lightning Team . As part of their research activities, the members of this team have been investigating the causes and effects of lightning as well as analyzing a wide variety of atmospheric measurements related to thunderstorms. One of the primary objectives of this group is to determine the relationship between the electrical characteristics of storms and precipitation, convection, and severe weather. In order to achieve this objective, the GHCC Lightning Team has designed, constructed and deployed numerous types of ground based, airborne, and space based sensors used to detect lightning and characterize the electrical behavior of thunderstorms. The data collected by the GHCC Lightning Team is routinely shared with scientists around the globe, resulting in numerous advancements in the field of Atmospheric Science.

thunder won't hurt you - lightning will! So it's important to pay attention when you hear thunder. Thunderstorms happen in every state and every thunderstorm has lightning. Lightning can strike people and buildings and is very dangerous. Thunderstorms affect small areas when compared with hurricanes and winter storms. The typical thunderstorm is 15 miles in diameter and lasts an average of 30 minutes. Nearly 1,800 thunderstorms are happening at any moment around the world. their small size, all thunderstorms are dangerous. Every thunderstorm produces lightning, which kills more people each year than tornadoes. Heavy rain from thunderstorms can lead to flash flooding. Strong winds, hail, and tornadoes are also dangers associated with some thunderstorms. You can estimate how many miles away a storm is by counting the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the clap of thunder. Divide the number of seconds by five to get the distance in miles. The lightning is seen before the thunder is heard because light travels faster than sound. (Of course, get safe shelter first, before you take the time to count the seconds!) Thunderstorms need three things:
  • Moisture - to form clouds and rain.

It might even kick ectoplasm, but to add that ultimate touch of otherworldliness, you need thunder and lightning Lightning is raw power, and we can sense it. It appears in flashes of light that are sometime bright enough to blind us, and is accompanied by sharp cracks of sound, booms, or sometimes a low rolling sound like the growling of an immense dragon. It is unpredictable and it is dangerous. For all these reasons, all of us have a core that loves and fears lightning. There are devoted fans of thunder and lightning, chasing storms to see the beauty of silvery forked streaks from heaven. Some carry cameras, tape recorders, and other instruments. Those are the people who give in to a fascination that we all share, somewhere deep within us. You might analyze it scientifically, but lightning reaches us all on a primitive, emotional level. why you need lightning in your haunted graveyard.

    Thunderstorms can bring heavy rains, flash flooding, tornadoes, strong winds, lightning, and hail
    Flash floods/floods are the number one killer associated with thunderstorms with nearly 140 fatalities a year
    Although thunderstorms in this area are less likely to spawn tornadoes than elsewhere in the United States, most wind damage is from "straight-line" rather than tornadic winds. "Downbursts", a type of straight-line wind, can cause damage equivalent to a strong tornado.
    Lightning occurs with all thunderstorms.
    Its electrical charge and intense heat can electrocute on contact, cause electrical failures, split trees, and ignite structure and brush fires. Hail associated with thunderstorms can be smaller than peas or as large as softballs and can be very destructive.
    While some thunderstorms can be seen approaching, others hit without warning.
