Catatumbo Lightning
These lightning are over the Venezuela’s Catatumbo River. This isn’t your average lightning storm that passes quickly, the Catatumbo lighting strikes over one million times per year.
Occurring between 140 to 160 nights per year, 10 hours per day and up to 280 times per hour, the lightning stems from a mass of intense storm clouds. The flashes appear in a variety of colors including reds, oranges, blues, purples and more, due to the varying presence of dust particles or water vapor in the atmosphere.
