Hi, can anyone help me to learn how lightening bolts are made. I like watching lightening and have often wondered how they are formed. Thanks

Hi Mikey, welcome to the forums!

Lightning is actually quite a complex thing, and there is still some debate over how different types form. The basics, that as far as I'm aware aren't in dispute, are that an electric field builds up in the atmosphere which grows in strength until it can discahre in the clouds or between the clouds and the ground.
