One of the former directors of the KNMI once told me that he saw St.
Elms fire over a wood many years ago.

St Elmo's fire? Wouldn't have thought that was likely from trees?
Maybe streamers? Never seen sparking trees before unless they have
actually
been zapped.

It had me thinking of streamers too but I wouldn't like to say for
sure.
