Why one place on Earth gets lightning almost every night

Scientists have identified Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela as the planet's top lightning hotspot. New satellite data reveals this tropical region experiences more lightning activity than the Congo Basin. These hotspots form due to specific atmospheric conditions, with warm air, moisture, and wind patterns creating constant storms. Lake Maracaibo's unique geography allows for nighttime storms, a phenomenon sometimes called Catatumbo lightning.
