Current Lightning Statistics

_______________________

This is a snapshot of the Lightning/2000 realtime lightning display. It updates every 60 seconds. The graph displays lightning strokes per minute over the last 24 hours. ________________________

This is a depiction of the current lightning activity in the region.  Larger symbols represent more recent strokes.  The count in the upper left corner is the number of strokes detected in the last minute.  The display normally shows the lightning activity in the last 20 minutes.

For the newest strokes, cloud-to-ground is shown as a small yellow lightning bolt, and intercloud/intracloud is shown as red triangles.

For older strokes, green and cyan denote cloud-to-ground discharges, and blue and pink denote intercloud/intracloud discharges.
