A compact intracloud discharge (CID), also known as a narrow bipolar event (NBE), is an intensive form of lightning that produces radio waves and no visible light. Lasting only a few millionths of a second, these events are the most powerful known natural terrestrial source of radio waves. They are not well understood scientifically.
