Abstract:Lightning is a naturally occurring phenomenon with significant socioeconomic and environmental impacts, underlining the need for the application of advanced methods to predict it. This study aims to evaluate the performance of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in the prediction of the lightning potential index (LPI), the lightning threat index (LTI), and the product of convective available potential energy (CAPE) and precipitation (CAPE × P). Based on the intensity of convection and the number o… Show more
