Brief report describes continuing program of measurements to determine variations, caused by local terrain, in vertical electric fields radiated by distant lightning. Lightning electromagnetic field increased or decreased with respect to nominal value, depending on slope of local terrain, extent of local vegitation, and distances, sizes, and shapes of nearby structures.
