Down comes a deluge of sonorous hail, Or pronedescending rain. Widerent, the clouds Pour a whole flood, and yet, its flame unquenched, Thunconquerable lightning struggles through. Ragged and fierce, or in red whirling balls, And fires the mountains with redoubled rage. Black from the stroke, above, the smouldring pine Stands a sad shattered trunk; and, stretched below, A lifeless group the blasted cattle lie. James Thompson, The Seasons (1727) have been investigating ball lightning for more than two decades. I published a ball lightning report in Nature in 1976 that received worldwide publicity and I consequently many people wrote to me with accounts of their own experiences. Within a very short time, I had accumulated about 200 firsthand accounts, and the file has continued to grow steadily since then. Several things impressed me. Few of those who wrote to me had any detailed foreknowledge of ball lightning at the time of their observation. Nonetheless, once reports of other phenomena such as St. Elmos fire had been eliminated, the remaining descriptions were remarkably consistent. Furthermore, nearly all who contacted me were keen to have an explanation of what they had seen and seemed entirely sincere.

I was excited to read about ball lightning, but I felt the book could've gone into more detail on certain theories. It’s a good introduction, though, if you’re new to atmospheric physics. Just wish it was a bit meatier!

Not What I Expected
I was looking for a deeper scientific analysis, but this book felt more like a collection of anecdotes. If you're interested in atmospheric mysteries, it’s okay, but I wanted something more scholarly. Disappointed!
