Lightning is associated with thunderstorms, and thunderstorms are caused by moist air being heated, causing it to rise and form the clouds that build into thunderstorms. That's why thunderstorms are so common in the tropics.
And over most of North America including well north. DAMN!
Yes, but there is definitely a trend of a combination of heat and humidity as you go south. Why is that such an unusual thing to consider?
