                         lightning attachment to tall objects in general, and wind turbines 
                         in particular, following the construction of large wind farms in 
                         lightning-prone regions. Initial observations of lightning 
                         attachment to wind turbine generators at a Kansas wind farm in 
                         2012 resulted in a number of insights and left several open 
                         questions. This led to the planning and re-deployment for the 
                         summer or 2013. Ten groups have collaborated on this 2013 field 
                         project, resulting in the following suite of instruments and 
                         observations: 10-station 3D lightning mapping array (LMA), 
                         8-station slow antenna array, 4 electric field mills, 2 
                         continuous, standard-speed, fixed-location video cameras, three 
                         mobile highspeed video observation vehicles, remote charge-moment 
                         observations, remote low-light cameras focusing on 
                         upperatmospheric discharges, and upgraded U.S. National Lightning 
                         Detection Network observations of both cloud and cloud-toground 
                         discharges (including continuous waveform data). In addition, all 
                         turbine generators were equipped with devices that provide 
                         estimates of lightning peak current within the blades. This paper 
                         provides an overview of the 2012 and 2013 observations, including 
                         a brief discussion of the instruments, seasonal overviews of 
                         lighting incidence by type, turbine attachment statistics, and 
                         some example cases of lightning attachment to wind turbines.",
