Tour Scotland Video Lightning North Sea Coast Of East Neuk of Fife

Tour Scotland travel video of lightning over the North Sea on visit to coast of the East Neuk of Fife near Crail Crail, East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. Lightning is a sudden electrostatic discharge during an electrical storm between electrically charged regions of a cloud, called intra-cloud lightning or IC, between that cloud and another cloud, CC lightning, or between a cloud and the ground, CG lightning. The charged regions in the atmosphere temporarily equalize themselves through this discharge referred to as a strike if it hits an object on the ground, and a flash, if it occurs within a cloud.
