文摘
- •
Thunderstorm days derived from the SYNOP and lightning detection networks are compared.
- •
We aim to estimate the average distance by which humans detect thunderstorms.
- •
Two different computational methods are used to estimate the best threshold value.
- •
An average of 17.5 km is the most reliable estimate of how lightning is perceived by humans.
- •
Observational range computed for 44 meteorological stations varied from 12 to 24 km.
