This technical report points out the importance of forecasters in the field understanding the basic physical principles of the lightning stroke, the lightning flash, and certain other electrostatic phenomena. Several varied theories on the creation of negative and positive charge centers on cumulo-nimbus clouds are presented by the author for the readers' consideration. The integral parts of a single lightning flash are covered in detail and the author furnishes a better insight to the lightning phenomenon than normally held by the weather forecasters in the field.
