yes.
The noun lightning itself (electrical discharge) is used as a noun adjunct, rather than an adjective, in such terms as lightning bolt or lightning rod. Only when the intent is to show great speed or quickness (lightning speed, lightning reflexes) is lightning an adjective.
Just about. It strikes when the electric potential has built up high enough to ionize the air. That can happen anywhere.
The only form of plasma on Earth found in nature is lightning. Lightning occurs when an electrical charge builds up in the atmosphere and discharges, creating a plasma state of matter.
I think that lightning can happen anywhere in the world but you shouldn't worry about those types of things because lightning is a rare thing unless you live in a harsh, damp or cold environment.
The lightning didn't say anything to the rain, as lightning does not produce sound. Lightning is an electrical discharge in the atmosphere, while rain is precipitation in the form of water.
Thunder and lightning typically form in cumulonimbus clouds, which are large, towering clouds associated with thunderstorms. These clouds are formed by rising warm air that cools and condenses into water droplets, which then collide and create an electrical charge. When this charge is discharged as lightning, it heats the air around it rapidly, causing the sound we hear as thunder.
It forms on Earth and various planets outside the atmosphere.
Lightning forms in clouds.

Pretty much anywhere.
almost anywhere
Cumulonimbus clouds form lightning
The lightning capital of the world is Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela. This area experiences an average of 233 lightning flashes per square kilometer per year, earning it the title of the lightning hotspot of the world.
No. Since tornadoes form in thunderstorms they are usually accompanied by lightning, but they do not actually cause lightning.
Benjamin Franklin was the first person to prove that lightning is a form of electricity.
It isn't the lightning, but the rain, which promotes the growth of mushrooms.
Just about. It strikes when the electric potential has built up high enough to ionize the air. That can happen anywhere.
