Post a few screen shots or station IDs (although they can be very
transitory) and we'll see what we can describe.
KJ4ERJ-15 injects various lightning strike data in different forms.
Single strikes are strikes. Multiple strikes within a 6 character
grid-square are compressed to an area that may be yellow or red
depending on how many strikes are there. Strikes are also counted and
activated into "Strike Zones" which are 4 character grid squares.
Oh, and the object that is describing the square is located at the
average of all of the participating coordinates, so it will move around
possibly giving you a bunch of squiggly tracks in the middle of
thunderstorms.

Some of the data is easy to figure out, such as lightning strikes.
Other things, not so much. Weird squiggly tracks, yellow and red
squares, thunderclouds.
Is there a decent resource out there somewhere that explains what they
are?
