Hmmm... Thunderclouds, lumped or distributed? It all depends upon the
application requirments... if the occurence is infrequent one may make a
quasi-static assumption and invoke DC conditions.
I suspect that they're more correctly modelled as resonant circuits...
specifically, as quartz-crystal oscillators.
I keep hearing pilots talk about "clouds full of rocks"...
