Lightning storms!

The Earths pinpoint areas for lightning storms are in the mid-west of America, Argentina and some regions of the Sahara Desert!

As i have talked about before the Andes and Rockies again are a place for very strong storms. In this case lightning storms are quite dangerous round the east of United States in the Rockies and the east of Argentina in the Andes.

A collision of different types of air masses also forms intense storms in semi-arid regions!
