No but the leader that travels from the cloud to the ground travels at about 60 000 m/s.
Light travels at 300 000 000 m/s.
Note that the bright flash of lightning occurs on the return stoke and travels from the ground up to the cloud.
Read the article on lightning at Wikipedia.org, 'The World's Encyclopedia'. The link is in the related links below.

Does convection or conduction travel at the speed of light?
No. The speeds of convection and conduction vary, but they are nowhere near the speed of light.
What do you need to travel at the speed of light?
There is no way to travel at the speed of light.
Is it possible to travel at the speed of light in water?
The speed of light in water is less than the speed of light in space. Only light can travel at the speed of light.
What travels at light speed besides engines?
Engines cannot travel at light speed. The only thing that can travel at this speed is the Photon, the particle of light.
Will light speed travel be possible in our lifetime?
Probably not in five lifetimes! Light speed travel is a work of fiction, like in sci fi movies. No human will ever travel at the speed of light.
Does convection or conduction travel at the speed of light?
No. The speeds of convection and conduction vary, but they are nowhere near the speed of light.
What do you need to travel at the speed of light?

Is it possible to travel at the speed of light in water?
The speed of light in water is less than the speed of light in space. Only light can travel at the speed of light.
Can a person travel at a speed of light?
No. Nothing with mass can travel at the speed of light.
How do you travel in the speed of light?
You don't. The only objects that can travel at the speed of light are those that ONLY travel at that speed, like photons or gravitons.
What will happen if a man passes a electrmagnetic waves in speed of light?
A man can't travel at the speed of light.A man can't travel at the speed of light.A man can't travel at the speed of light.A man can't travel at the speed of light.
What can travel at speed of light?
Any massless "thing" like a photon and MAYBE a neutrino. NOTHING with mass can travel at the speed of light. Photons travel at the speed of light. The entire electromagnetic spectrum travels at the speed of light.
What travels at light speed besides engines?
Engines cannot travel at light speed. The only thing that can travel at this speed is the Photon, the particle of light.
What can travel twice the speed of light?
Nothing physical is believed to be able to travel twice the speed of light.
Will light speed travel be possible in our lifetime?
Probably not in five lifetimes! Light speed travel is a work of fiction, like in sci fi movies. No human will ever travel at the speed of light.
Does red light travel faster than blue light?
No. All colors travel at the same speed. It is called "the speed of light".
How To Travel At The Speed Of Light?
You can't travel at the speed of light. It might be possible, in theory, to approach it, but not quite to reach it.
