Does lightning travel from the sky to the ground or the ground to the sky?
Lightning typically travels from the sky to the ground. It is initiated by a downward-moving stepped leader from the cloud that is met by an upward-moving streamer from the ground, creating the visible lightning bolt.

What causes lightning in a snow storm?
Lightning can occur in snowstorms when there are strong updrafts and downdrafts present, along with the presence of charged particles in the atmosphere. These conditions can result in the separation of electric charges, leading to the discharge of lightning.

What is produced when static electricity is discharged in the air?
When static electricity is discharged in the air, it can produce a visible spark or a crackling sound. This occurs as the built-up electric charge is neutralized by moving from one object to another, usually through the air.
Why is lightning accopaied by thunder?
Lightning is an electrical discharge through air. This discharge causes the air around the lightning bolt to violently heat (hotter than the suface of the sun) and expand; the air then quickly cools and contracts. This causes the audible crack or rumble of thunder (depending on your distance from the lightning).
Is lightning a ac or a DC?
Lightning causes a DC transient waveform (A large initial current that decays to zero).
