I think a miracle is usually considered to be a violation of known natural regularities that does not itself have a natural explanation. This is much more specific than just “unexplained phenomenon”. Leaders in lightning are not violations of natural regularities. They are a regular predictable phenomenon, and their existence does not contradict (AFAIK) any other accepted natural law or regularity.
