Analyzing Horizontal Distances Between WSR-88D Thunderstorm Centroids and Cloud-to-Ground Lightning Strikes [PDF]
, 1998 On April 29, 1996, lightning struck the airfield at Hurlburt Field, FL, killing one Airmen and injuring ten others. This cloud to ground lightning strike hit eight minutes after a lightning advisory was canceled.

Radar Nowcasting of Cloud-to-Ground Lightning over Houston, Texas [PDF]
, 2011 Ten years (1997–2006) of summer (June–August) daytime (1400–0000 UTC) Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler data for Houston, Texas, were examined to determine the best radar-derived predictors of the first cloud-to-ground lightning flash from a ...

Lightning and Severe Weather: A Comparison between Total and Cloud-to-Ground Lightning Trends
Weather and Forecasting, 2011 Abstract Many studies over the past several decades have attempted to correlate trends in lightning (e.g., rates, polarity) to severe weather occurrence. These studies mainly used cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning information due to the ease of data availability, high detection efficiency, and broad coverage across the United States, with ...

Lightning stroke clustering into cloud-to-ground lightning flashes
, 2014 Cloud-to-ground stroke data have been analysed for the years 2010-2012 for the Cata- lan region. These strokes have been grouped together into lightning ashes using a hierarchical clustering method, with two di erent approaches to the clustering radius, as the objective of the study was to evaluate di erent clustering methods.
