abstract = "Optical emissions from natural cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning
flashes in the Washington, DC metropolitan area are measured using
two Phantom high-speed camera systems and the GLM sensor on the
GOES-16 satellite during summer 2017. Important insights are
gained by observing CG flashes from the side using the Phantom
cameras simultaneously with the top-down view provided by GLM. The
GLM response to visible processes of the CG flashes that are
evident to the phantom cameras at 2500 frames per second are
assessed. These features include individual return strokes,
interstroke intervals, and continuing currents. The optical
measurements from GLM and the Phantom cameras are compared with
observations from the National Lighting Detection Network (NLDN)
and the Washington D.C. Lightning Mapping Array (DCLMA) to gain
additional perspective. Several cases of interest are shown to
illustrate the value of these types of coincident observations.",
