GLM Assist In DSS

The below image shows GOES-16 day cloud convection (DCC) beneath GLM Minimum Flash Area (MFA). Point F is a DSS event. DCC shows clouds glaciating a county upstream of our DSS event, with the storm becoming electrified shortly after glaciation per MFA. This prompted a call to the emergency manager providing support for the DSS event letting them know that lightning was imminent.

ENI total lightning also shows lightning (white points), but the point data fails to show the extent of the lightning, which may lead decision makers to think that they have more time to react to the approaching lightning than they actually do.Sandor Clegane
