Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is “Heat Lightning“?  Here is the correct answer. Heat Lightning is lightning that occurs at a distance such that thunder is no longer audible.  I’ll have a new weekly weather quiz question starting Monday. The first person to post the correct answer as a comment on this page will win a week of free personalized weather forecasts tailored to your needs. Good luck.
