Lightning and Thunder
Long ago, people made up myths and legends to explain
what causes lightning and thunder. Having an explanation for
something can make it less frightening. Lightning and thunder
can be very frightening especially because they often happen
just before a big rainstorm.
We now know what causes lightning and thunder. Have
you ever noticed that you often hear thunder just a few seconds
after you see lightning? This is because it is lightning that
causes thunder. If the storm is far away from you, there are a
few seconds between the lightning and the thunder. If the storm
is close to you, you hear the thunder almost at the same time
that you see the lightning.
Lightning is caused by electricity building up inside a cloud.
When a large mass of warm air and a large mass of cold air

come together high above the earth, it causes a lot of

movement in the air. The cold air moves down while the warm
air moves up, which creates something like friction. An electric
charge builds up in the clouds. The charge gets stronger and
stronger until it explodes—and the LIGHTNING flashes.
When the lightning flashes, the air around it becomes
unbelievably hot—five times hotter than the surface of the sun!
The heated air expands into the cooler air around it, causing
the shockwave that we call thunder.
Even though we usually see lightning before we hear the
thunder that it causes, the two events happen just a fraction of
a second apart. In addition, both light and sound travel through
the air in waves. However, light waves travel faster than sound
waves, so the light waves from the explosion get to us first.
A tiny version of an event similar to lightning and thunder
can happen when you brush your feet along a carpet and then
touch a doorknob. You can sometimes hear the little sizzle of
mini-thunder, and see the flash of mini-lightning.
