I feel this is entering into a chapter from  The Morning of the
Magicians,( Le Matin des magiciens) by Louis Pauwels and Jacques
Bergier,1960.

The article by Papaelias (1993) discuss events within thunder storms.
Sprites, which were not discovered at the time of Papaelias, are  large
electrical discharges that occur above thunderstorms.  The activity of a
sprite may be caused by meteors that could cause irregularities as they
move through the upper regions of the ionosphere, before burning up in
the lower atmosphere due to friction
(http://www.livescience.com/45493-origin-of-reddish-lightning-sprites-revealed.html).
May be the meteors , being antimater are the cause of the release gamma
radiation?  A possible starting point  maybe the reexamination of sprite
data (http://www.energyusa.net/comet_meteor_showers.htm).

Title: Annihilation of antimatter meteors
Authors: Papaelias, P. M.
Journal: Earth, Moon, and Planets (ISSN 0167-9295), vol. 60, no. 1, p.
