Upward lightning (UL) from tall man-built structures have received increasing attention during recent years (e.g., reports of Shindo et al. [2012] and IEC TR61400-24 [2019]). It is widely known that an UL is featured with an initial upward leader that originates from a tall grounded structure and propagates toward overhead thunderclouds. UL can be further classified into either positive, or negative or bipolar UL according to the polarity of the charge transferred to the ground (Rakov & Uman, 2003). The UL initial leader, either polarity, is usually followed by the initial continuous current (ICC) with a duration of several hundreds of milliseconds and a peak value over several kilo amperes (Miki et al., 2005). In most cases, more intensive current pulses with a rise time of a few microseconds are found to be overlaid on the slow-varying ICC and referred to as ICC pulses. After the cessation of ICC, dart-stepped leaders and return strokes may occur. So far, either some components or the general features of the current records of UL under different climate conditions have been studied and reported by many researchers from all over the world (e.g.
