1. Lightning is created by strong updrafts carrying rain to the top of the cloud causing friction with hail or ice creating an electrical charge, like static electricity. When the lighting is built up to a certain point it has to balance or equalize with the grounds charges. When lightning strikes the air around the lightning bolt is six times the temperature of the surface of the sun, this creates thunder.
