Stepped LeaderA faint, negatively charged channel that emerges from the base of a thunderstorm and propagates toward the ground in a series of steps of about 1 microsecond duration and 50-100 meters in length, initiating a lightning stroke.

Stepped LeaderThe initial streamer of a lightning discharge; an intermittently advancing column of high ion-density which establishes the channel for subsequent return streamers and dart leaders. The peculiar characteristic of this type of leader is its step-wise growth at intervals of about fifty to one hundred microseconds. The velocity of growth during the br [..]
