Post St.Elmo's Fire...?

I was once flying in the central African region, at night and we could see blue-ish type sparks all along the leading edge of the wings, along the props and on the windshield...was this St.Elmo's fire?
And, can anyone explain what it actually is, why it comes about and whether it is dangerous?
