Lightning results from the buildup and discharge of electrical energy between positively and negatively charged areas.
Rising and descending air within a thunderstorm separates these positive and negative charges....static electricity

You could not be more wrong. Lightning is created as a discharge of built up energy due to the separation of positive and negative charges which are generated inside the thunderstorm by static electricity. And thunder is the sound that comes after lightning, the spark is very hot and very fast, and the air literally explodes because of the rapid expansion due to the heat. Lighting first, thunder later.
