The following shows the lightning icons as they appear on the Map dis-
play. The range at which lightning icons are displayed is selectable on

Because the accuracy of the Stormscope
®
sensor is limited, do not
rely on the placement of lightning icons for map range settings less
than 25 nm.

erate (level 2) is an area with 9-25
