It is worth noting that a T-storm east of the Rockies is often a very different animal than those to the west. Out here, we see many storms that are not at all wet, and the presence of lightning in a semi-arid region can often lead to wildfire. Back east, where rain is typically much more common in summer (due to the influence of the Gulf and Atlantic), dry flammable fuel is rare, and lightning-sparked fires are regionally much less frequent. RHF is right, we do get many mountain T-storms, and in fact this weekend we may see another round even near sea level in Central Cal due to a semi-stationary E. Pacific low sending wave pulses over us. Keep your lightning arrestors in good shape, and batten down the hatches! Bruce Jensen |

It is a shame about those wildfires burning people's property.I reckon
most of those wildfires will have to burn themselves out.Wildfires also cause new and better growth (Forest) by burning out a lot of rubbish. cuhulin |

We don't live in the mountains. Like Dave said lightning is rare in southern California. Around here it is less than once a year I hear of any by ear or on the radio. Seeing lightning is even more rare. Usually every few years there will be a storm that you will actually see lightning. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

California Summer Wildfires and Lightning The present Swarm of Fires in mainly in Northern California. The vast majority of Wild-Fires in the Northern part of California are Lightning caused. Significant California Wildfires - 6/25/08 http://www.fire.ca.gov/downloads/inc...Map_062508.pdf However most of the Lightning occurs during the Winter Months along with Rain and Cold Weather; so these Lightning caused Fires do not get very big; and nature takes it course. The Hot Summers are a different matter and when a major T&L Storm comes thru Northern California during the Dry Season Wild-Fires are a Dangerous and Major Problem for the Forests, Grasslands and People too. Presently there are Hundreds of Wild-Fires burning in Northern California. It has been determined that Lightning started more than 500 Fires now burning Northern California Wilderness Areas. Note - Just in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest there were about separate 75 Fires. FWIW - Southern California Is A Land Unto Itself : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:S...California.png The Ten Southern most Counties of California are basically in a different Weather and Eco-System. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_California http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecosystem presently there is the smell of smoke in the air throughout the Sierra Nevada foothills ~ RHF http://www.mymotherlode.com/News/article/id/D91GBRSO0 Twain Harte, CA |

The thunderstorms have to dissipate all their energy to get over the mountains. If they make it at all, there is no "storminess" left in them. The storms generally stop at the San Andreas fault, as delineated around here by Elizabeth Lake Rd. I get maybe 4-6" of rain a year, except during El Nino. |

Dave - California is a big place, and it is impossible to gauge the amount of lightning statewide by your local experience. Even here in the SF Bay Area, we get a little bit of thunder almost every year, and occasionally we get a decent storm. I have rarely taken a summer camping trip in the Sierra without seeing some lightning - in July and August, it is fairly common. Bruce Jensen |
