These lighting that strikes the ground is called cloud-to-ground lightning. This bolt begins when a step-like series of negative charges races downward from the bottom of a storm cloud toward the Earth along a channel at about 200,000 mph (300,000 kph). Each of these segments is about 150 feet (46 meters) long.

When the lowermost step comes within 150 feet (46 meters) of a positively charged object and meets the climbing surge of positive electricity, it creates lightning in the process 🌩⚡
