Preliminary Development and Evaluation of Lightning Jump Algorithms for the Real-Time Detection of Severe Weather
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Previous studies have demonstrated that rapid increases in total lightning activity (intracloud + cloud-to-ground) are often observed tens of minutes in advance of the occurrence of severe weather at the ground. These rapid ...
Lightning and Severe Weather: A Comparison between Total and Cloud-to-Ground Lightning Trends
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: any studies over the past several decades have attempted to correlate trends in lightning (e.g., rates, polarity) to severe weather occurrence. These studies mainly used cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning information due to ...
Automated and Objective Thunderstorm Identification and Tracking Using Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Assessing Flash Characteristics in Lightning-Initiated Wildfire Events between 1995 and 2020 within the Contiguous United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Kinematic and Microphysical Significance of Lightning Jumps versus Nonjump Increases in Total Flash Rate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hirty-nine thunderstorms are examined using multiple-Doppler, polarimetric, and total lightning observations to understand the role of mixed-phase kinematics and microphysics in the development of lightning jumps. This ...
Insight into the Kinematic and Microphysical Processes that Control Lightning Jumps
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: detailed case study analysis of four thunderstorms is performed using polarimetric and multi-Doppler capabilities to provide specificity on the physical and dynamical drivers behind lightning jumps. The main differences ...
A Spatiotemporal Lightning Risk Assessment Using Lightning Mapping Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Supercell thunderstorm charge structure variability and influences on spatial lightning flash relationships with the updraft
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Exploring Lightning Jump Characteristics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study is concerned with the characteristics of storms exhibiting an abrupt temporal increase in the total lightning flash rate [i.e., lightning jump (LJ)]. An automated storm tracking method is used to identify storm ...
