Cross-DC3 Flash Statistics Derived from Individual Network Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/353.201 Summary This dataset is comprised of lightning flash statistics derived from the original VHF measurements provided by the North Alabama, Colorado, Oklahoma, and West Texas Lightning Mapping Arrays. These include 2-minute time series of flash count and size statistics derived from the flash data, as well as statistics of pixels in the 5-minute gridded flash product data. The time period covered by the data: Specific IOPs from May 14, 2012 through June 30, 2012 during the Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry Experiment (DC3).
