Abstract
Records from lightning-flash counters, coupled with a knowledge of the energy radiated by a typical discharge, enable the expected radio noise from local thunderstorms to be calculated. Comparisons with the results of direct noise measurements in Singapore suggest that these may be in error at medium frequencies under some storm conditions.
