Lightning is the electricity that comes from a plug.

Lightning is a big flash of electricity.

Lightning is the sound of thunder.

During the winter

During the summer

Any season

Solid turns into a liquid

Air that escapes and forms a gas

Small drops that floats in the air

The hot air makes the water vapor turn back into water

droplets or ice crystals. That forms a rain. Inside the rain, the droplets and crystals carry a tiny bit of electricity. The electricity builds until lightning suddenly forms.

The cold air makes the water vapor turn back into water

droplets or ice crystals. That forms a cloud. Inside the cloud, the droplets and crystals carry a tiny bit of electricity. The electricity builds until lightning suddenly forms.

The cold air makes the water vapor turn back into water

droplets. That forms a cloud. Inside the cloud, the droplets carry a more droplets. The droplets becomes more and rub against each other until lightning suddenly forms.

Lightning only moves directly from the cloud to the ground.

Lightning jumps from one cloud to another only and never hits the ground.

Lightning can jump from one cloud to another, it can move from a cloud to the ground and it can even move from the ground up to a cloud.

You can't calculate the distance of lighting.

To calculate how far away a storm is, wait for two lightning strikes to hit the ground and then count on 10 second, wait for the next strike divide the seconds that you waited for the second strike, by two. That will be how far in km the lighting is away from you.

To calculate how far away a storm is, watch for lightning. Then count the seconds until you hear thunder. Next, divide the number of seconds by 5. This will tell you how many miles away the storm is

5 miles away

4 miles away

6 miles away

Because the light is further away from the cloud and the cloud makes the noise.

Because light travels faster than sound.

This statement is false.

Under a wooden deck.

On a tractor, because the rubber wheels will keep you safe.

A strong building or a car with a hard roof provides good shelter

You avoid standing under a tree.

You avoid being close to long grass.

You avoid being close to an animal.

You should avoid using candles during a thunder storm.

You should keep the doors and windows closed.

You should avoid using the phone and water.

If you feel your skin tingle or your hair stand up

If your skin starts to feel hot.

If your skin starts to look red and feels cold.

It is a description of weather that is likely to occur in the future.

It is the description of the weather right at this moment.

It is the description of the wind today.

Crouch down. Put your

hands on your head and keep your head down.

Stand up straight and putt your hands in the air.

Crouch down and curl into a ball. Put your

hands on your knees, and keep your head down.
