																			&lt;B&gt;May 6, 2008—&lt;/B&gt;After 9,000 years of silence, &lt;A href="http://www3.nationalgeographic.com/places/countries/country_chile.html" linkindex="1"&gt;Chile&lt;/A&gt;'s Chaitén volcano (pictured on May 3) is erupting with lava, ash—and lightning (&lt;A href="http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2008/05/080506-AP-chile-volca.html" linkindex="2"&gt;full story&lt;/A&gt;).
&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;hr size="2" color="#666666" /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;
Since the volcano awoke on May 2, it has continued erupting intermittently, blanketing the area in ash and forcing more than 4,000 people to flee.
&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;hr size="2" color="#666666" /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;
The little-understood storms may be sparked when rock fragments, ash, and ice particles in the plume collide to produce static charges—just as ice particles collide to create charge in regular thunderstorms. (More: &lt;A href="http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/02/070222-volcano-lightning.html" linkindex="3"&gt;"Volcanic Lightning Sparked by 'Dirty Thunderstorms,' Study Finds"&lt;/A&gt; [February, 2, 2007].)
&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;hr size="2" color="#666666" /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;
The mingling of lightning and ash seen above may be a "dirty thunderstorm."
