                         analysis of a huge amount of data from sensors on the ground, such 
                         as weather radars, or on board of satellites, in addition to the 
                         forecasts of numerical models. Thunderstorms associated with 
                         severe convective events have a potential to cause strong winds, 
                         floods, and landslides, with serious environmental and 
                         socio-economic impacts. New approaches based on data mining have 
                         been proposed for countries like Brazil that lack a complete 
                         weather radar coverage, but have some ground-based lightning 
                         detector networks. Lightning data may help to visualize the 
                         current state of convective systems in near real-time or to 
                         estimate the amount of convective precipitation in a given area 
                         and period of time. Data mining algorithms can be trained using 
                         numerical model data and lightning data yielding specific data 
                         mining models, which can be used to predict the occurrence of 
                         convective activity from numerical model forecasts. These data 
                         mining models may help meteorologists to improve the accuracy of 
                         early warnings and forecastings, mainly in countries that lack a 
                         complete weather radar coverage.",
