In the department of Zacatepéquez, near the city of Antigua Guatemala, the Agua stratovolcano has become more active. Due to the release of volcanic ash at the top of the volcano, numerous electrical discharges are formed, frightening and delighting the locals at the same time. This natural phenomenon is explained by the fact that ash particles accumulate a negative charge during friction, and volcanic gases saturated with water vapor accumulate a positive charge. As a result of the potential difference, volcanic lightning is formed. Scientists unofficially call such an event a “dirty thunderstorm.“ The Agua volcano has a height of meters ( feet) above sea level. There is a 280-meter crater in the northeast of the volcano, 6 craters on the northwestern slope of the volcano and 2 on the southern slope of the volcano.
