Understanding Storm Cell Information

The storm cells show storms as well as the storm’s projected path in the immediate future.
The direction of the red cone indicates the projected path of the storm cell. The red bars that appear

in the cone indicate where the storm will most likely be in the future. Each bar represents 15

minutes.

Understanding Lightning Information

Lightning strikes are represented by lightning bolt icons. Lightning appears on the map if strikes

were detected within the last seven minutes. The ground-based lightning detection network only

detects cloud-to-ground lightning.
