    @ceruleanspark The ground actually has very little to do with lighting, it's all about the differnece in charge. Lightning occurs due to unevenly charged portions of the cloud. Because the cloud is so unstable you get pockets of positive and negative charges and they discharge as lghting to even out the charges. That's why lightning can strike in 3 ways: cloud to cloud, cloud to ground, or ground to cloud. The ground can actually strike a cloud it's very cool. And that's how lightning works.
