A lightning strike which occurred on Halloween night 2018 in Brazil has set a new record for the longest lightning discharge yet seen, stretching 440 miles.

About 6 months later in March 2019, a lightning strike in Argentina lasted for 16.73 seconds, another new record.

The next time a clash of thunder or a flash of lightning startles you, be thankful you weren't in Brazil on Oct. 31, 2018. That Halloween night, the record for the longest-traveling lightning strike was broken when a bolt stretched 440 miles across the southern region of the country.Scientists...

Two guarantees:

1. There will be more people in Mississippi getting vaccinated this weekend than watching this event.

2. Fedor will lose.

Ash columns produce so much electricity. Great volumes of gases and ash and heat rising up, creating a ton of friction.

I love eruptions.
