How does ball lightning form?
Ball lightning is usually associated with thunderstorms, but lasts considerably longer than the split-second flash of a lightning bolt. Many of the early reports say that the ball eventually explodes, sometimes with fatal consequences, leaving behind the odor of sulfur. I think that when lightning flashes electric magnetic fields combine and get the end of the lightning bolt and curve it baking it into a ball. watch this video of ball lightning at www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4vV3KxQ16c
