Potential uses of new Thunderstorm Intensity Index

Thunderstorm Intensity Index (TSII) is a new method of determining locations over which thunderstorms exhibited intense lightning activities. It follows changes in flash rates in a single point (3x3 km) in short time intervals (2 min) using mathematical principles of lightning jump. Contrary to lightning jump, TSII is an diagnostic tool for detection of intense storms and affected areas. One intense storm will usually produce values of TSII between 1 and 3 per affected point depending on the intensity of the storm. End result is a trail of intense parts of the storm.
