This work presents the first observation of a multi‐stroke positive cloud‐to‐ground lightning flash sharing the same channel to ground mapped with a very high frequency broadband interferometer and a Lightning Mapping Array. This type of lightning flash is very rarely observed, and it is currently unclear how frequent it is and even under what conditions it occurs. Our observations indicate a scenario where the first downward positive leader initiates from a decayed negative channel. After the first return stroke, some of the main negative channel branches stop propagating and are likely cut off. A fast recoil leader and/or a fast breakdown play a crucial role in reconnecting these previously decayed leader channels and initiating the subsequent positive stroke. The mechanism we propose to describe the phenomenon allows us to explain its rarity and the discrete positive charge transfer to the ground.
