Electrical thunderstorm nowcasting using lightning data mining
This paper presents a study developed at SIMEPAR (Paraná state weather service) using lightning data for electrical thunderstorm nowcasting. Thunderstorm electrical data collected at SIMEPAR such as lightning location, time of occurrence, current intensity, polarity, etc, are stored in real-time in a relational database. As a first step of this study, Microsoft Business Intelligence bundled wit...
متن کاملiEMSs 2008:International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software Integrating Sciences and Information Technology for Environmental Assessment and Decision Making
Thunderstorm nowcasting is an important function for the severe weather forecaster. The usual method is for radar to detect thunderstorms, and for downstream systems to generate ’threat areas’ for issuing warnings. However, these threat areas are difficult for other systems to work with as they are not mathematically well defined. In this paper we develop an algorithm, THESPA (THunderstorm Envi...
متن کاملThe Role of Total Lightning in Thunderstorm Nowcasting
The objective of this paper is to show that observations of total lightning activity provide significant benefits for thunderstorm nowcasting problems. For the purposes of this paper, the term “total lightning activity” refers to the combination of in-cloud (IC) and cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning flashes. We focus on a couple of key nowcasting issues in this paper: (1) thunderstorm growth and d...
متن کاملiCAST: A PROTOTYPE THUNDERSTORM NOWCASTING SYSTEM FOCUSED ON OPTIMIZATION OF THE HUMAN-MACHINE MIX
A prototype thunderstorm nowcasting system, tentatively named iCAST (interactive Convective Analysis and Storm Tracking), is being developed at Environment Canada with an emphasis on optimizing the ‘human-machine mix’. The prototype aims to build on the strengths of the human forecaster in the thunderstorm nowcasting process while making the best use of machine computing capabilities. iCAST is ...
متن کاملAn operational approach to the nowcasting of an intense thunderstorm over Liguria
In the period between late spring and early summer as well as in autumn, the Mediterranean is often affected by rapid development of intense convective systems. In some cases the operational NWP models are able to provide good indication of occurrence of such severe weather events (potential instability conditions) but often location and intensity of convective precipitation are poorly forecast...
