Presentation transcript:

Lightning Updates Several tasks underway o Continue to develop training o Coordinate data transition to 2010 Spring Program o Transition data to newest AWIPS II build o Install SCAN update in WFO Huntsville AWIPS transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

Training Outgrowth of SPoRT total lightning training o First part: Total lightning background o Second part: Total lightning examples o Can be modified for Pseudo- or Proxy-GLM products o Incorporate GLM specific information

2010 Spring Program transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations Transition data to Spring Program o SPoRT / Lightning Group sending 3 networks – North Alabama, D.C., and Kennedy Space Center o Coordinating formats o Code sent to Eric Brunning / Chris Siewert – Process SPoRT Pseudo-GLM in real-time – Evaluating other possible flash algorithms o Checking status of North Alabama GLM-Proxy with the AWG o Obtaining archive data from WFO Huntsville – Case study days if no real-time activity

AWIPS II Updates transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations SPoRT has received latest AWIPS II build o Latest build requires new data format – GRIB 2 o SPoRT has successfully converted LMA and Pseudo- GLM data to new format o Trouble-shooting AWIPS II display

SCAN Algorithm transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations Developed by Mamoudou Ba at MDL o Modification to the System for Convection Analysis and Nowcasting – Allows for real-time trending of total lightning data in AWIPS – Installing at WFO Huntsville now

WRF-based Lightning Algorithm Work done by Bill McCaul, Jon Case, Scott Dembeck Ongoing work to use model microphysics (graupel flux, vertically integrated ice) to forecast lightning threat o May Case o Had to re-examine LMA data due to tornadic supercells in close proximity (30-40km), large distance from LMA network, and on a radial. o Testing algorithm for use by NSSL Spring Program o Several different scenarios and locations from Summer 2009 being used for testing. o Working with NSSL to evaluate algorithm and develop hourly max fields of output vs. instantaneous forecast o Application of algorithm to June 2005 ABI simulation is likely several months away. NSSL testing to first be completed. transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

MODIS “Fog” Product transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations January (3 weeks) Who’s participating? MFL, MLB, TLH, KEY, MOB, LIX, HGX, CRP, ABQ, SMG Online evaluation page: designated evaluators for consistency Evaluate effectiveness in marine and coastal areas as well as the variable terrain of ABQ. –Changes coming to address limitations. Therefore, need this input retain positives. Document some case examples (1-2 page w/ figures) Lead to AMS or NWA conference presentations

MODIS-GOES Hybrid transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations Planning to put product in AWIPS I at HUN for initial testing, while still intending wider, future usage in AWIPS II Producing product in real-time and posting to internal website for viewing and quality control (vis, IR, water vapor) Purpose: ABI proxy to expose end users to future capabilities using near real-time data.
