Thunderstorms and Our Warming World

  • Summary

  • Did you know lightning heats the air to over 50,000°F—five times hotter than the sun's surface? Or that some lightning strikes can travel over 10 miles from the storm, striking without warning? As our world warms, thunderstorms are becoming more frequent and intense, leading to stronger downpours, flash floods, and even "supercharged" lightning storms. Join us as we delve into the science behind these dramatic storms and the surprising ways our changing climate fuels their fury.
