This paper summarizes published atmospheric electrodynamics research of the past few years. It concentrates on the work of US researchers and does not claim to provide a full bibliography. The paper is divided into three general areas: 1. The ionosphere as a source for middle atmospheric electrodynamics; 2. Regional and global scale electrodynamics; and 3. Thunderstorms and lightning.
