Last Night during the FIRST round of thunder storms, I joined my dad outside to watch the lightning light up the sky miles away. I thought this would be a great time to "TRY" to capture lightning. I captured something better. Coming off the side of my neighbors house was Lightning Streamer. When a leader and a streamer meet and the current flows (the strike), the air around the strike becomes extremely hot. So hot that it actually explodes because the heat causes the air to expand so rapidly This information was found on http://science.howstuffworks.com/nature/natural-disasters/lightning4.htm
