The lightning flash data drops out, much like a missed satellite frame. Interestingly enough, there are a couple other troubling notes. Multiple lightning lines (streamers of history) are located in the same circled area. What exactly does this mean to the forecaster? Additionally, four areas inside the circle are showing flash rates above 25 strikes per minute. It is confusing to an operational forecaster and takes time to interpret data that should be straightforward. The display has to be massaged to increase ease and usability. At 2315z there is a circle inside a circle&#8230;. and a dangerous thunderstorm alert inside a thunderstorm alerts.<\/p>\n<p>UFFSU<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/inside.nssl.noaa.gov\/ewp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2015\/05\/EN-Circle-in-circle.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10815\" src=\"https:\/\/inside.nssl.noaa.gov\/ewp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2015\/05\/EN-Circle-in-circle.png\" alt=\"EN Circle in circle\" width=\"1542\" height=\"904\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inside.nssl.noaa.gov\/ewp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2015\/05\/EN-Circle-in-circle.png 1542w, https:\/\/inside.nssl.noaa.gov\/ewp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2015\/05\/EN-Circle-in-circle-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/inside.nssl.noaa.gov\/ewp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2015\/05\/EN-Circle-in-circle-768x450.png 768w, https:\/\/inside.nssl.noaa.gov\/ewp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2015\/05\/EN-Circle-in-circle-1024x600.png 1024w, https:\/\/inside.nssl.noaa.gov\/ewp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2015\/05\/EN-Circle-in-circle-500x293.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, (max-width: 1200px) 60vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monitoring the ongoing thunderstorms, Earth Networks continue to supply helpful lightning data.\u00a0 This is a good supplement to watch indicating future thunderstorm growth or at least some pulsing.
