The phrase "every cloud has a silver lining" means that in every bad situation, there are some good bits, or something to be optimistic about. No clouds literally have a silver lining, and a cloud only appears to be silver when the sun hits it in a certain way. As for the idiomatic meaning, it might be true. Try thinking of any bad situation you can and I'm sure you can think of a couple of ways it could become good, so yes every cloud does have a silver lining.
There are three main types of lightning strikes: cloud-to-ground strikes, intra-cloud strikes, and cloud-to-cloud strikes. Cloud-to-ground strikes are the most common and well-known type, where lightning extends from the cloud to the ground. Intra-cloud strikes occur within the cloud itself, and cloud-to-cloud strikes happen between different clouds.
