HIGH LEVEL THUNDERSTORMS OF JULY 31–AUGUST 1, 1959
Monthly Weather Review, 1960Abstract The high level thunderstorms which occurred in Montana and northern Idaho on July 31 and August 1, 1959 resulted in critical lightning-caused fire conditions. These storms are described and the source of moisture and the instability which initiated them are discussed.

Severe thunderstorms in the Colombia and Venezuela high lightning active areas
2017 International Symposium on Lightning Protection (XIV SIPDA), 2017This paper presents a general description of severe thunderstorm episodes detected during the last two years (2015–2016) in the most active lightning regions in Colombia and Venezuela. Hourly and seasonal occurrence characteristics, strokes rates, duration and orographic patterns are described.

The High Speed Updraft—The Key to the Severe Thunderstorm
Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1968Abstract A model of the motion within a severe storm with some rainfall kinematics is developed from simple hydrodynamic concepts of flow. Based on measured data and descriptive analyses of storms with sufficient data to permit the assumption of a steady state, this paper supports the statement that the large, strong and erect updraft is the single ...

It is generally assumed that temperature increase associated with global climate change will lead to increased thunderstorm intensity and associated heavy precipitation events. In the present study it is investigated whether the frequency of thunderstorm occurrences will in- or decrease and how the spatial distribution will change for the A1B scenario ...

F-102 HIGH-ALTITUDE FLAMEOUTS IN AND AROUND THUNDERSTORMS
1961Abstract : It was determined that mixtures of ice crystals and other precipitation commonly found in the core of thunderstorms at high altitudes constitute an extreme operating hazard to F-102 aircraft. The hazard can be relieved to a large extent by the installation and use of a continuous ignition system.

In-flight measurements of high-energy radiation from thunderstorms
2014Lightning – the bright flashes that put the thunder in thunderstorm – is just one of several mysterious atmospheric phenomena perplexing scientists today. Only recently, scientists learned that thunderstorms sometimes emit bursts of X-ray and gamma-ray radiation.
