The probability of lightning striking any one spot, or the heat or light output of lightning. Maybe the number or volts.

One example of assonance in "The Lightning Thief" is in the line: "I had just vaporized my math teacher." The repeated long 'a' sound in "vaporized" and "math" creates an assonant effect. Another example is in the line: "Annabeth swiped the notebook from my hands and paged through it." The repeated short 'a' sound in "swiped" and "hands" is another instance of assonance.

Sound travels a mile in 4.5 seconds, while light is essentially instantaneous. So a difference of 9 seconds would be 2 miles, for example.
At the beginning of the first book Percy gets attacked by his math teacher, Mrs. Dodds. She gets him into an empty room and turns into a Fury (a kindly one).
