<p dir="auto"><strong>PLEASE DO NOT SKIP OR IGNORE ANY QUESTION.</strong></p>
<p dir="auto">I'm struggling to read the values of thunderstorm layer. There's no official clear documentation.</p>
<p dir="auto">Would you please answer some questions regarding thunderstorms?</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>1) How do I know which value is strong/moderate or light from the  thunderstorm layer?</strong></p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>2) Suppose, for  3 hour period (for example: 12am-3am) thunder data is 1.33 l/km2.  Is the value only 12am to 3am  (3 hour) period only?</strong> If not then how can I read the data for which time period? Because for every 3 hour period it shows different data.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>3) How do you calculate this formula?</strong></p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>4) Where is the official documentation?</strong></p>
<p dir="auto">Please clarify everything. It's so confusing to understand how the formula works.</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks</p>

Hello, the layer shows a number of lightnings in the given area in 1 square kilometer for the selected time, if you are not Premium user, the time step is 3 hours, for Premium users it is 1 hour.<br />
Regarding the data calculation, you can read more about it on ECMWF website - <a href="https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/datasets/catalogue-ecmwf-real-time-products" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/datasets/catalogue-ecmwf-real-time-products</a></p>
