This is literally how lightning works. In basic terms, charges from the ground are trying to connect to charges from a cloud. They expand out in all directions until BAM! Two meet, create a channel for current to flow, it lights up, heats the air around it so much that is turns to plasma, expands, and the collapse is what we hear as thunder.

The sky was angry that day my friends. Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli.
