abstract = "This study aims to analyze how the visible parameters of
cloud-to-ground discharges such as the flash multiplicity and
duration, the interstroke interval, the continuing current
duration and the number of ground contacts per flash vary between
observations conducted on different days. Several authors have
already analyzed these parameters for groups of thunderstorms in
some regions. Although some authors did not find differences on
those characteristics for different regions, there has not been a
comprehensive amount of lightning recordings from the same
thunderstorm in order to evaluate such parameters in a
storm-to-storm basis. The lightning data for this work was
obtained by four high-speed cameras set to operate at 2500
framesper second. They were locatedinS{\~a}o
Jos{\'e}dosCampos,Brazil, andinitsneighboring region as part of
the RAMMER project (Portuguese acronym for Automated Multi-Camera
Network for Monitoring and Study of Lightning Flashes). Five
thunderstorm days were selected for this study, during which a
total of 361 flashes were recorded. This is the first study in
which four high-speed cameras observed the same thunderstorm from
different locations. Because of the number of cameras and their
positions, the coverage area is larger than usual single-camera
studies, thereby increasing the number of flashes recorded from
the same thunderstorm. These larger samples allow a more
representative analysis of the lightning parameters mentioned
above.",
