Lightning is a rapid electrostatic discharge that occurs in the clouds during a thunderstorm. According to NASA, there are about 44 (±5) lightning strikes per second and over 1.4 billion flashes annually. The lightning strikes are not evenly distributed around the earth, and over 70% of them occurring in the tropics. The South and North Poles and the oceans get fewer lightning strikes.

North America has 53; South America has 67 and Oceania has 10. The most active areas in North America are in Mexico and Guatemala while the most active place in the United States ranks 122 globally.
