Gary,

Please find attached a small perl script that reads the most recent 
lightning file from AWIPS and determines whether lightning has struck 
within 60NM. This program really only functions as a demo. A slightly 
more involved version creates a cccWRKLTG file if lightning has 
occurred within 60NM.

I have netcdf programs that extract data from other netcdf files such 
as METAR observations, the ETA model, and XClimate files. I've also 
written a perl version of ncdump that can serve as a sort of template 
for reading netcdf files. If you (or anyone else) wants these files, 
I'll happily make them available. One of these days I will place them 
on the AWIPS Local Applications Development page.
