Lightning bolts strike the ground against a dramatically red and orange sunset during this desert Southwest monsoon storm in Tucson, Arizona. The intense sunset is attributed to volcanic ash in the atmosphere. Mother Nature puts on a show of light that can be considered an act of God. Electrical currents from lightning bolts travel from the earth to the sky through invisible pathways that trickle down from the storm clouds above. Once one of these invisible pathways makes contact with the charge building in the ground, the invisible pathways are lit up with the energy flowing back to the cloud from the ground. These summer storms are called Monsoon because of the southerly winds bringing moisture up from the mountains in Mexico This moisture interacts with the mountains in the Arizona desert and summer temperature over 100 degrees. These conditions are prime for developing intense thunderstorms. The powerful force of these storms can be frightening and thrilling. These conditions exist during the "Monsoon Season" in the desert southwest generally from early July to late August. These rains are what rejuvenate the dry desert and keeps it a living, green desert. Also search Jeff Smith and Lightningsmiths for my other weather related images
