One of the various sources of infrasound signals are lightnings in storms. These moving sources can be detected and tracked at infrasound arrays. We correlate lightning data from Blitzortung with the infrasound detections from the Hungarian infrasound station at Piszkes-teto (PSZI) that has been collecting data since May, 2017. The objective of this study is to track storms and to test the station's capability to detect thunderstorm signals. We invetsigate what conditions affect these detections; in what directions, distances and accuracy can we track storms. We also look at how various noise conditions influence the detection capability of the array.
