For the first time, scientists have been able to “see” and trace lightning inside a plume of ash spewing from an actively erupting volcano.

"The lightning activity was as strong or stronger than we have seen in large Midwestern thunderstorms,"

Oooooh. Its pretty.

On a slightly nerdy sidenote, we are all familiar with the earth, fire, wind, water element scheme in videogames and cartoons. Does volcanic lightening break the balance between fire and wind? :?

It will be a mix between Fire and Air.

But the whole four element thing doesn't make sense. :hiding:
 
:salamext:


It is He Who does show you the lightning, by way both of fear and of hope: It is He Who does raise up the clouds, heavy with (fertilising) rain!

And the thunder declares His glory with His praise, and the angels too for awe of Him; and He sends the thunderbolts and smites with them whom He pleases, yet they dispute concerning Allah, and He is mighty in prowess.


[Qur'an Ar-Ra'd (the Thunder) 13: 12-13]​
