With each training session taking the form of an interactive seminar, the forecasters have absorbed a lot of information covering a wide variety of meteorology and technology.  Greg Stumpf elaborated on the multitude of radar-and-environment-derived products available with the NSSL’s Multi-Radar/Multi-Sensor approach.  Now Dr. Kristin Kuhlman, seen below, is discussing the Lightning Mapping Array, beginning with the physics behind LMA.  Soon the forecasters will take to their workstations and experience LMA data first hand.
