Feasibility of the thunderstorm nowcasting at Moscow aerodromes using radar and lightning detector information / Ivanova A.R., Denisenko I.A. // Hydrometeorological Research and Forecasting, 2020, no. 1 (375), pp. 142-161.

Thunderstorm events at Moscow aerodromes with the use of DMRL-C data, aerodrome lightning detector TSS-928 information, and COSMO-Ru02 output data (for Central federal district area) with high time resolution are analyzed. Consistency of information about thunderstorms from different sources is discussed. Feasibility of thunderstorm nowcasting (“near” nowcasting with lead time up to 2 h) is considered on the basis of case study in Domodedovo on the 16th of May 2019.
