Saturday's Hadleigh Breakfast Briefing
By The Editor
5th Aug 2023 | Local News
Saturday's super fact:
Recent research from the Met Office revealed that helicopters can cause an isolated lightning strike. While flying, the helicopter acquires a negative charge, so if it flies close to an area that is positively charged (e.g. hail or a positively charged part of a cumulonimbus cloud) it can trigger a lightning strike.
