causative discharge. Analysis indicates that the onset delay and the duration of precipitation steadily increase with increasing L-value, while the signal recovery time is independent of L-value for the LEP events associated with both storms. The causative lightning discharges associated with the two storms were located at different latitudes. For lightning occurring in the storm at higher latitudes, the associated LEP events are of longer duration and exhibit precipitation in a smaller area displaced less from the causative discharge. The onset delays and event durations increase more rapidly with increasing L-value for events associated with lightning occurring in the storm at higher latitudes. The general spatial and temporal signatures are consistent with those expected for LEP events induced by nonducted whistlers.
