@Break_ToS good point!
@sheckley666 thnx for the information. But i thought when Blitz in meaning of lightning used it usually refers to the electrical discharge and the flash of light that we see as the result of it, which happens super quick. This feature of “being super quick” is what lightning symbolizes i think. So when it was called Blitz, they did not use it or associate it with “complex and rather slow growing process of ionization”
I found this: “Lightning travels at the speed of light, about 186,000 miles per second. This means that you see lightning pretty much when it happens. When lightning strikes, a noise is made which we call thunder. Thunder travels much slower, at the speed of sound, about 1088 feet per second. It takes sound about 5 seconds to travel one mile. You can observe this for yourself.”

“Blitz’ comes from the German word for lightning. Its arrival in the English language can be traced to the German military strategy of Blitzkrieg”
