Negative charges build up in the clouds and positive charges on the Earth's surface. When the difference is big enough, the electrons in the clouds find the fastest path to the ground which creates lightning. The lightning heats up the air quickly which creates thunder.

I have a question!
what are the four types of precipitation and are they?
OR you can tell me what radiation fog, advection fog, upslope fog, steam fog, and just plain fog is.

RAIN: snow falls from a cloud but melts on the way down. FREEZING RAIN: snow falls, but near the surface, the snow melts. But suddenly it supercools before it gets to the ground, and it freezes on impact. SLEET: snow falls, and it melts along the way. But it freezes again, so it becomes a ice pellet, which bounces on the ground. HAIL: in a thunderstorm, the water in the cloud freezes onto snowflakes. It falls, but the updraft brings the hail up to the cloud again, where it get another layer of ice. It does that until it becomes too heavy, and it falls. SNOW: snow falls.
