Best Answer

No. Fire is a combination of chemical and physical changes in which substances interact to release heat, light, smoke and ash. Lightning occurs when the negative charges (electrons) in the bottom of the cloud are attracted to the positive charges (protons) in the ground. In some instances, fire can be created by lightning.

Lighting is electricity and creates a 'flash' of light. Flashing is not a term used when talking about lightning/thunderstorms.

Is sheet lightning and heat lightning the same thing?

Sheet lightning and Heat lightning are very similar, if not the same. They form the same way, but might strike different. For instance, sheet lightning looks more like a sheet in the sky, (strange eh? :D) and doesn't normally strike down into the ground, and when you have heat lightning, you see differently. But mostly, they form the same way. =D good luck!
