Recent question: Is there such thing as heat lightning?

Thank you for your question, with a couple meteorologists here at my fingertips; I would like to share with you that….

NO there is no such thing as heat lightning. It is not lightning produced from excessive heat, which is what is commonly thought. It is just lightning from a storm in the distance. And usually occurs during hot summer months. It looks and sounds, (silent) the way it does because of how far it is away from you, the sound waves dissolve before they reach your ears. If you got closer, it would be like regular storm surrounded lightning. Heat lightning may sometimes appear reddish because the atmosphere has a tendency to distribute light on blue end of the light spectrum. This is the same as seeing a red sunset.

I hope that cleared up your curiosity on heat lightning and perhaps spurred up some more questions.

Keep them coming. Remember you can even ask to see hurricane pictures, for details of a tornado, or ANYTHING ELSE! I will get you an answer, WEATHER you like it or not. Thanks readers!
