Positive lightning is particularly dangerous, because it frequently strikes away from the rain core, either ahead or behind the thunderstorm. It can strike as far as 5 or 10 miles (8 or 16 kilometers) from the storm, in areas that most people do not consider to be a lightning-risk area. â¢ During a thunderstorm, each flash of cloud-to-ground lightning is a potential killer.
Lightning is over 40,000 degrees Fahrenheit. A bolt of lightning heats the air along its path causing it to expand rapidly. Thunder is the sound caused by the rapidly expanding atmosphere. The purpose of this experiment is to watch lightning and hear thunder to give you clues about how far away you are from a storm. One thunderstorm. A stop watch (or the ability to say one-Mississippi) 2. For every 5 seconds the storm is one mile away.
