This interesting website (above) follows lightning activity across regions. Looking closer at the map one will notice how the majority of the southern hemisphere is not recorded, which leaves some outstanding questions as to why aren’t there any weather recording apparatus in those regions, and what that tells us about the conditions (socio-economic, political) of those areas.
