DOI: 10.1016/j.atmosres.2016.08.021
Abstract: Abstract Several studies reported sudden increases in the total lightning flash rate (intra-cloud+cloud-to-ground) preceding the occurrence of severe weather (large hail, wind gusts associated to thunderstorms and/or tornadoes). Named “Lightning Jump”, this pattern has demonstrated… read more here.
