	Lightning - Wikipedia
		Cloud-to-ground lightning is a lightning discharge between a cumulonimbus cloud and the ground initiated by the downward-moving leader stroke.
		One special type of cloud-to-ground lightning is anvil lightning, which is sometimes called positive charge lightning, since it emanates from the anvil top of a cumulonimbus cloud where the ice crystals are positively charged.
		In anvil lightning, the leader stroke issues forth in a nearly horizontal direction till it veers toward the ground.

		Thunderstorm anvils may spread hundreds of miles downwind from the thunderstorm itself, and sometimes may spread upwind (see back-sheared anvil).
		Anvil Crawler - [Slang], a lightning discharge occurring within the anvil of a thunderstorm, characterized by one or more channels that appear to crawl along the underside of the anvil.
		Anvil Rollover - [Slang], a circular or semicircular lip of clouds along the underside of the upwind part of a back-sheared anvil, indicating rapid expansion of the anvil.

		Thunderstorm anvils may spread hundreds of miles downwind from the thunderstorm itself, and sometimes may spread upwind (back-sheared anvil).
		Thunderstorm anvils are a form of cirrus cloud, but most cirrus clouds are not associated with thunderstorms.
		A cumuliform anvil arises from rapid spreading of a thunderstorm updraft, and thus implies a very strong updraft.

		Mushroom - [Slang], a thunderstorm with a well-defined anvil rollover, and thus having a visual appearance resembling a mushroom.
		Such use of the term technically is incorrect, but in general it refers to a pattern characterized by widespread clouds and steady precipitation on the cool side of a front or other boundary.
		Visual characteristics often include a rain-free base (with or without a wall cloud), tail cloud, flanking line, overshooting top, and back-sheared anvil, all of which normally are observed in or near the right rear or southwest part of the storm (Fig.

		To the west were some cumulus and a small rainstorm, with virga fallstreaks under its base; to the east was a precipitation-free cloud base belonging to the main storm.
		Very nice mammatus formed to the south of us, under the anvil of the storm, and we stopped over to take some photos.
		It didn't take long for the storm, which had seemed so small and innocent at first, to reshape itself to a well-organized and large-scale thunderstorm with inflow from the south (where we were) and a dark downdraft with precipitation to our north.

		The cell had split up into several individual precipitation cores, of which the original core presented mostly crawlers; another cell to the south dropped CGs.
		A long and exhaustive night followed with a number of short chases and photography sessions of the lightning, dominated by beautiful crawlers.
		We went on, and searched for a new place to photograph the CGs and crawler lightnings, since trees partly obscured the view to the storm.

		Intracloud lightning is commonly known as sheet lightning because it lights up the cloud and the surrounding sky with an apparent sheet of light.
		Cloud-to-ground lightning is a great lightning discharge between a cumulonimbus cloud and the ground initiated by the downward-moving leader stroke.
		One special type of cloud-to-ground lightning is anvil lightning, a form of positive lightning, since it emanates from the anvil top of a cumulonimbus cloud where the ice crystals are positively charged, and is a form of positive lightning.

		Fortunately, this one erupted shortly before I had decided to leave, and filled a large sector of the sky with brilliant, moving light.
		Flickering tendrils of electricity "crawled" along the bottom of the anvil cloud canopy, quite true to the nickname.
		Viewing and photography of crawlers, however, often gets handicapped or prevented outright by low clouds, lingering rain, the threat of a rogue cloud-to-ground strike nearby...or the actual occurrence of one when no threat had been perceived before!

		Mammatus Clouds - Rounded, smooth, sack-like protrusions hanging from the underside of a cloud (usually a thunderstorm anvil).
		A dome-like protrusion above a thunderstorm anvil, representing a very strong updraft and hence a higher potential for severe weather with that storm.

	CG and Anvil Crawlers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		This is one of my all-time personal favorites, mainly because of the variety of lightning on display: a split-channel CG, along with a mixture of connected and disconnected "anvil crawlers." This lightning blazed through a region of light rain trailing a mesoscale convective system (MCS), which was moving SSE away from the scene.
		There is no place better than the central U.S. plains for photographing "anvil crawlers," because of the frequency of MCSs, and the lack of visibility obstruction by haze, low clouds, trees and terrain.
		And no photograph can possibly capture the spectacular majesty of lightning filaments branching across the sky in every direction.

		The lightning made a huge rumbling sound and when you looked up there was also this incredible rainbow forming on the horizon."
		The intracloud lightning, known as an anvil crawler, is the most common form of lightning, with the electrical charge contained within a single cumulonimbus cloud.
		Lightning often occurs during heavy storms while rainbows are generally formed after the rain has stopped, making an appearance of both simultaneously relatively rare.

		Winter is a frustrating time of the year for me as although Perth experiences many winter thunderstorms, the extensive rain and low cloud they normally produce makes lightning photography near impossible.

		Lightning started flashing on the horizon around 3:00 AM on July 30, 1999, and I went out to discover that Charleston was surrounded by active thunderstorms as an anvil crawler shot across the sky.
		Anvil crawlers were continuing around 360° of the sky when I stopped at the Kanawha Mall parking lot to start taking photos (second photo at right).
		But it wasn't long before one of the cells started to get close enough to begin pouring rain on me, so I headed for a more sheltered location.
