About this weather word search
- To estimate how far away lightning is, count the seconds between the flash and the thunder and divide by five to get the distance in miles.
- A bolt of lightning can heat the air around it to about five times hotter than the surface of the Sun.
- Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy and form high in the sky, while cumulus clouds are puffy and usually mean fair weather.
