How do the formation conditions and characteristics of megaflashes differ from typical lightning strikes, and what atmospheric factors contribute to their extreme length?

Megaflashes, exceeding 60 miles in length, form in the weaker outer regions of long-lived, large thunderstorms, often after the storm's main activity has passed. The 2017 megaflash exploited flat, conductive clouds spanning hundreds of miles, showcasing how extensive storm systems can facilitate exceptionally long horizontal discharges. Fewer than 1% of thunderstorms produce these events.
