Why don’t I see strikes on Stormscope associated with Nexrad showing a high echo top?

When electrical discharges no longer occur in a CB, there are no strikes to map on the Stormscope. In the dissipating stage of a thunderstorm, the convective wind sheer and other hazardous conditions begin to subside. There may be high rainfall rates in this stage, but the severe dangers are diminishing. You may wisely choose not to fly into a towering CU despite a lack of lighting. Combining the information supplied by Stormscope with Datalink Nexrad will enable you to better determine if a safe path exists through an area of weather or if it is an impenetrable line.
