Lightning is a massive electrical discharge created inside storm clouds. As the cloud churns, ice crystals and water droplets collide, separating electric charges. Negative charges sink to the bottom of the cloud, while positive charges rise to the top and even build up on the ground below. This imbalance creates an intense electric field. When it becomes strong enough to break through air’s insulation, a channel of ionized air forms—and electricity violently rushes through it as a lightning bol

YouTubeThe Everyday Why
explain everything on Instagram: "Lightning is caused by a buildup of electric charge in storm clouds. Inside these clouds, strong air currents push water droplets and ice particles around, causing collisions that transfer electric charges As a result, the top of the cloud becomes positively charged while the bottom becomes negatively charged, creating a powerful electric field. When the electric field becomes strong enough, it overcomes the resistance of the air, which normally acts as an insul
