Two new world records for megaflashes of lightning have been recorded by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), including one for longest distance of a singular flash in North America and one for longest duration in South America.
"A mega-flash is a really, really big lightning flash," Randall Cerveny, a rapporteur of Weather and Climate Extremes for WMO told CNN.
"Most lightning flashes in storms travel only a few miles or so. A megaflash can extend for hundreds of miles!"
