Dear Benjamin Franklin
I have travelled back in time from 2026 to tell you that we’re still not certain exactly how lighting works.
There are relativistic electrons and gamma rays involved, maybe positrons, and (possibly extragalactic) cosmic rays.
But it’s complicated, and we’re still thrashing out the details.

Shocking.

@gregeganSF this ties back in to a couple of articles that I spotted the other day because, lightning actually produces nitrogen that becomes fertilizer for the ground...

"Gardeners often refer to snow as nature’s fertilizer. But why? Like rain, snow captures nitrogen, sulphur and other trace elements as it falls through the air. Unlike rain which can quickly run off the soil surface, the snow slowly releases these nutrients into the soil as it melts. This gives the plants a much needed boost at the start of spring." I am fascinated to learn this! https://bokashiliving.com/discover-how-snow-helps-your-garden/ #Snow #Gardening
