                         events in recent years, causing various impacts to society, e.g. 
                         fires and fatalities. Thus, the objective of this work is to 
                         understand which mechanisms and climatic variability modes are 
                         associated with the lightning incidence during this summer in this 
                         region. The study includes a statistical-temporal assessment of 
                         cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning occurrence comprising the 16 years 
                         period from 1999 to 2014. The results showed that, for this period 
                         of analysis, the lightning incidence was associated with climatic 
                         patterns connecting the tropical and extratropical region, through 
                         a wave train, from the Indian Ocean to South America, favouring 
                         the formation and development of convective storms over Southeast
