If it were just a little bit hotter, I bet we'd have heat lightning.
Anyone ever seen that before?  I saw heat lightning one time in Michigan
and I swear, it was so cool to watch that I lost track of driving and got
into a car accident.  Basically, a spark starts somewhere and lightning
branches out in half a dozen directions.  After a few hundred meters, each
of those branches out.  And so on, all until the whole sky is filled, then
it disappears and happens again a few seconds later.  The weirdest part...
it's absolutely silent, no thunder whatsoever.
