Abstract
IN your issue of January 14, 1886 (vol. xxxiii., p. 245), Mr. T. Mackenzie reported lightning from a bank of cloud to the clear sky, but, as it was quite dark, one cannot be certain that there were no indistinct outliers. In Hann's “Lehrbuch der Meteorologie” (ed. 1, p. 632) other cases of lightning from a cloud to the clear sky are referred to.
