Before revision: Typically, lightning discharges 30,000 amperes at up to 100 million volts, and emits light, radio waves, and X-rays.See Flashes in the Sky: Earth's Gamma-Ray Bursts Triggered by Lightning Plasma temperatures in lightning might approach 30,000 kelvin (29,727 °C) (53,540 °F), or five times hotter than the temperature at the sun surface, and electron densities may exceed 1024 m−3.
