@okamijubei Месяц назад

It happens because the cloud dust are high in static charges and lightning is attracted to that and it hits the volcano because it's the closest thing to the charged particles and in needs to be grounded. It happens at a right place in a right time.

@alice88wa Месяц назад

It's so amazing that it happens like that. I can only imagine how ancient peoples must have felt witnessing this erupting volcano also come alive with lightning all around it. No wonder they assigned divine causes to it, how else could you explain such an awe-inspiring sight?

@SirKolass Месяц назад

That's quite wrong. Pyroclastic clouds generate their own lightning through massive friction, just like clouds do. In this case, the negative charges in the ash cloud connected to the positive charges in the clouds above, which made it branch upwards instead of usual downwards, that's a positive lightning, it's a lot louder and powerful, and lasts longer.

Those we won't know the vocanic lightning (scoure: Wikipedia) =>Volcanic lightning is an electrical discharge in the atmosphere caused by a volcanic eruption, rather than from a typical lightning storm. Volcanic eruptions that produce lightning may be colloquially called dirty lightning storms, but the term technically refers only to ash-filled clouds that interact with weather systems. contains ice. Volcanic lightning can occur completely independently of any meteorological interaction.

What this shows, is the density of the material in the cloud. It looks like a cloud but it is actually pulverized solid material. That cloud became the tallest stucture relaitve to the ground around it. This drew the lightning to it. What a fantastic piece of video. The person recording it should be very proud to have captured a once in a lifetime video.

I think it's lightning from volcanic activity, though there is a storm going on around it. The lightning bolt jolts up into the cumulonimbus (thundercloud) above it because of polarity differences.

If you play the video back in slow motion, it actually looks like the lightning came OUT of the volcano, which is 100% possible. There is scientific evidence that supports that lightning can, in fact, form inside a volcano's plume.

@soundseeker63 Месяц назад

@@AK-47ISTHEWAY I've seen footage of volcanic lightning. But it stays within the volcanic cloud. I've never seen volcanic lightning interact with the sky. This was a cloud to ground strike that just happened to coincide with a small eruption. The volcanic cloud was not big enough to generate its own lightning. But it sure did look incredible!
