negative charges in a storm cloud react with something of positive charge (usually close to the ground) and generates electricity (lightning)

It is formed by the impact of polarisation of electric charges in the water molecules suspended in the clouds. For specific and detailed knowledge, please refer Encyclopedia Britannnica or any other authentic reference Book.
