Sparks! And when the distance is large enough, lightning!
The buildup of electrons in a cloud is not a form of current electricity. Current electricity refers to the flow of electrons along a conductive path, while the accumulation of charge in a cloud generates an electric potential that can lead to lightning discharge when the charge difference becomes large enough.

Electrons don't jump from the nucleus, because there are no electrons in the nucleus. They DO jump, or can jump from one orbit to another. If it jumps to a higher orbit, then energy must be added, and if it jumps, or falls to a lower orbit, energy is released.
a buildup of electrons on an object is called a blank charge
Electricity is created by the movement of electrons in a particular direction. A large jump of electrons results in sparks, or even lightning.
You are an accumulation of excess electrons on an object, giving it a negative charge.
