strike dot
Strike Finder plots a single
in the 100 or 200 nm range view,
depicting an area of 100 sq miles where lightning activity is detected.
Multiple lightning strikes detected in this same area may only plot as one
dot. Therefore, under severe conditions, when lightning activity is
concentrated in small areas, there will be more than one strike per displayed
zoomed
dot while in the long range settings. When
in to 50 or 25 nm, Strike
Finder will display more than four dots as shown in Figure 11. In fact, under
severe conditions, four or more dots are common.
Single dot in the 100 or 200 nm range view, comprised of multiple
lighting strikes zoomed to 50 or 25 nm, transforms to more than four
strike dots.
Cluster of four independent dots in the 100 or 200 nm range view,
comprised of multiple lighting strikes, transforms to many dots when
zoomed to 50 or 25 nm, and in this example, appears to fill the viewing
area.
