The Utility of Total Lightning in Diagnosing Single-cell Thunderstorm Severity in the Central Appalachian Mountains Region
Recent severe weather research has examined the potential role of total lightning patterns in the severe thunderstorm warning-decision process although none to-date have examined these patterns in explicitly weak-shear environments. Total lightning flashes detected by the Earth Networks Total …

The Influence of Environmental Disruption on Offender-Target Interactions and Criminal Activity in Emergency Scenarios
… Baseline, hurricane, tornado, and a sudden severe thunderstorm. The models developed here performed as designed and as expected. The results of each baseline showed crime was clustered at the global scale and concentrated among a small number of offenders and targets. Crime locations were …

Dual-Doppler Derived Vorticity as a Predictor of Hail Size in Severe Thunderstorms
… to life and property. Large hail produced by severe thunderstorms is a major focus of this mission. An algorithm known as the Maximum Estimated Size of Hail (MESH) algorithm is in operational use to diagnose the presence and size of hail. This study aims to use dual-Doppler observations as …
