Is there such a thing as heat lightning?

In short, yes, there is such a thing as heat lightning. Heat lightning is often seen on hot summer days, hence the name. It is usually out in the distance or on the horizon and usually comes from distance thunderstorms. They are not accompanied by sound because they are too far away. "Traditional" lightning occurs when negatively charged particles in the clouds bump into each other to eventually form lightning. Heat lightning can often be signs of a thunderstorm coming in the near future.

What are the safeties and protections of lightning?

Lightning alert systems successfully detects any and all lightning strikes associated with thunderstorms that occur within a specific area. Lightening Alerts are issued based on information received from detectors that are designed to identify lightning. Amazingly, the detection unit was invented in the early year of 1894. The name of the man that invented this product was named Alexander Popov.Not only was the detection device considered to be highly innovative and advanced for the time, it was also considered to be the very first radio receiver located in the entire world. Since its original induction, three types of detectors have been established in the world. These include systems that are ground-based, space-based, as well as mobile.The ground-based and mobile detection devices are able to measure which direction lightning is going as well as the strength of the lightning from a particular area. Systems that are based in space are able to identify much more information as it has the ability to see the lightning as a whole. In turn, lightning alerts are sent to meteorological centers that can then pass information on to forecasters that work directly with the public.
