As expected, the max value on gridded lightning data will likely need to be location specific and might even need to be adjusted based on time of year or even type of storm to better visualize storm trends. I can see how this would quickly become complex and would require local research that might only be done at offices with someone interested in ltg data. Regardless, as has been discussed ad nauseam, changing the max value needs to be easier for forecasters. Simply adjusting the color map is not a long term fix!
