From positive to negative strikes and everything in between, here’s a breakdown of the science behind lightning.
Springtime storms can often bring an impressive light show to South Central Texas, just like the lightning that’s been found in the storm activity over the past few days.What exactly are the most common variations of lightning strikes and how do they form? Let’s dive into the science below:As a thunderstorm grows and matures, cold air at the top of the cloud forms ice crystals, while the warmer air at the bottom of the cloud forms water droplets.
A positive charge develops at the top of the cloud, while a negative charge develops at the bottom. As the charge at the bottom of the cloud grows and strengthens, energy is eventually let out in the form of a lightning strike to an area or object of the opposite charge.According to the National Weather Service, an intra-cloud strike is the most common type of lightning.
