During the Tropical Composition, Clouds and Climate Coupling (TC4) experiment that occurred in July and August of 2007, extensive sampling of active convection in the ITCZ region near Central America was performed from multiple aircraft and satellite sensors. As part of a sampling strategy designed to study cloud processes, the NASA ER‐2, WB‐57 and DC‐8 flew in stacked “racetrack patterns” in convective cells. On July 24, 2007, the ER‐2 and DC‐8 probed an actively developing storm and the DC‐8 was hit by lightning. Case studies of this flight, and of convective outflow on August 5, 2007 reveal a significant anti‐correlation …
