When a lightning bolt travels from the cloud to the ground it actually opens up a little hole in the air, called a channel.

The order of decreasing photon energy is FM radio, AM radio, yellow light, and microwaves.

Electromagnetic radiation: The electromagnetic field's waves, which are conveying electromagnetic radiant energy through space, are what make up electromagnetic radiation. It consists of X-rays, gamma rays, microwaves, infrared, light, and radio waves. These waves are all a component of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Microwave radiation has wavelengths between one meter and one millimeter, which correspond to frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz, respectively.

Radio waves: The electromagnetic spectrum's longest wavelengths, which are found in radio waves, are normally found at frequencies of 300 gigahertz and below.

The radio waves have the highest photon energy and the lowest is microwaves.

So, the highest to lowest order is FM radio, AM radio, yellow light and microwaves.
