Flash Centroid Density

Watching developing storms, I used the GLM data over Level 2. It was helpful to see the peak flash centroid density spikes.  The increased values coincided with the increased 28 fl/min.

I issued a severe t-storm warning and as soon as I did the MESH increased along with the ProbSevere for hail. Flash per minute jumped to over 50.

I see the Flash Extent Density spiked just before I issued my warning.

*Addition...the NWS never warned this storm.  But the GLM just screamed that the storm was instesne and the ProbSevere levels were pretty high.
