Hi Dave, re: > I have someone interested in McIDAS-X and they are asking about lightning > data. Which lightning data? Unidata university sites can get both the NLDN and USPLN (NAPLN, GLN) data feed to them via the LDM/IDD point-to-point by UAlbany and WSI (aka The Weather Company which is now owned by IBM), respectively. re: > Quick question: > > Do you have an example McX display of lightning data you could send me, > that I could pass along? I have attached a FRMSAVE capture of USPLN lightning (negative flashes in yellow and positive flashes in cyan) over North America. The plot represents all flashes between 0 and 22:38 UTC today, 20170523. If you would rather have a display of flashes over radar imagery, let me know and I will generate one (probably over the southeast U.S. as that seems to be the place for lightning today). re: > Or, do you have a MD file of the data and I'll > put together a simple display? Let me know if the display is what you had in mind, or if you are interested in something more interesting. re: > Thanks in advance, No worries.
