An Lightning Spell

This spell (incantation unknown) was used by Lord Voldemort in May of 1998 to test the strength of the Elder Wand, which he had recently stolen from Albus Dumbledore.It was used to shoot a thick bolt of blinding white lightning into the sky, along with a slight crackling noise as high amounts of electricity tend to produce.A similar spell was utilised by Gellert Grindelwald during his duel with Newton Scamander in 1926 and once more in 1927, during his escape from custody.

==Behind the scenes==
*This spell only appears in Part 1 and Part 2 of the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, as well as in the video game based on the film.
*This is reminiscent of the white disarming spell Dumbledore used on Snape within Snape's memory in Chapter 33: The Prince's Tale of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which may have been the Disarming Charm. In the films, this spell was portrayed as a flash of white light surrounding Snape, causing him to drop to his knees.
*It is possible that this is also the spell that Lord Voldemort used to destroy the shield surrounding the castle during the Battle of Hogwarts, as the spell has a similar appearance and colour to the lightning spell. 
*This spell is possibly the Baubillious charm, though it is only a fan theory.
