Infinate lightning and explotion spawn

Okay so I'm creating a mod that is supposed to spawn lightning and an explosion at half health once, and then another lightning strike every minute. Instead what I get it infinite lightning an explosions that look like lightning tornados, (could be a cool weather addon), but I've been trying to fix this literally all day with no luck, and I haven't found a solution in any of the forums I've found. Anyone have suggestions or know fixes?

 

Here are some images of code and results

wait, are you using it on a mob? I thought it was for players, did you set it to the tick update of your custom entity?

okay so I did it but it still produces a lot of lightning bolts. Is it an issue with the tick updates or did i do something wrong and not catch it? I couldn't find the "on loaded entity tick update" in the additional triggers btw, so could it be that?

i got it working, i changed the 200 on the bottom if to 210 earlier and forgot to change it back, that was what was causing the extra lightning. Thank you so much for your help!
