ACROSS AMERICA — An enormous lightning megaflash that moved from one electrified cloud to the next traveled 477 miles across three Southern states, smashing a previous world record for the single largest flash by about 37 miles, the World Meteorological Organization said this week.
A megaflash is defined as any horizontal lightning bolt that travels more than 62 miles. By that standard, this one, which covered parts of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi on April 29, 2020, was a megaflash times seven.
The area the strike spanned is approximately the same distance between New York City and Columbus Ohio, or between London and Hamburg, Germany.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s GOES-16 satellite captured footage of the megaflash lightning bolt as it snaked across the skies.
The record was one of two set in “notorious hot spots” in North and South America announced by the meteorological group this week.

The other was for the greatest duration of a single lightning flash. On June 18, 2020, a thunderstorm over Uruguay and northern Argentina produced a lightning strike that lasted just over 17 seconds.

The more scientists know about lightning hot spots — in North America, that’s the Great Plains — the better people in areas prone to these electrical storms can prepare.
“It is likely that even greater extremes still exist, and that we will be able to observe them as lightning detection technology improves,” he said.
The record-setting megaflashes were not “isolated” but occurred during a thunderstorm, Ron Holle, a lightning expert for the WMO Committee on Weather and Climate Extremes, said in the statement.
When thunder starts to rumble, it’s time to seek out a lightning-safe place, he said.
The best place to go is to an enclosed building. Look for the types of buildings that have plumbing and wiring, he said, rather than a beach hut or bus stop. Fully enclosed, metal-topped automobiles are the next best option to a building, Holle said.
“As these extreme cases show, lightning can arrive within seconds over a long distance, but they are embedded within larger thunderstorms, so be aware,” Holle said.
