GLM Lightning with Initiating Storms

The loop below shows GLM lightning for two storms that developed earlier over Delaware Co. NY and Susquehanna Co. PA.  In the upper left panel, ENI lightning is overlaid as well, and the GLM Flash Extent Density shows a much larger horizontal extent of lightning vs. the ENI pulses. The GLM average flash and group areas (two lower panels) show average flash area increasing over time as the storm grows, going from light green to medium or dark blue.  The flash extent density and total energy products (two upper panels) both seem to do a pretty good job of highlighting the more active core.
