Got a few questions about lightning data.   
(to start with, I'm utilizing my own sensors and posting data from each 
into an MQTT channel, and using the Weewx MQTT reader to take that data and 
convert it into loop records and then let the rest of the system take care 
of it from there...) 

I see in the weewx db schema that there are:

 'lightning_distance',        'REAL' 
 'lightning_disturber_count', 'REAL' 
 'lightning_energy',          'REAL' 
 'lightning_noise_count',     'REAL' 
 'lightning_strike_count',    'REAL'

When I receive an interrupt from the Lightning sensor,  I can post a record 
with lightning_distance and lightning_energy.  That seems fairly clear.

But how do I post a noise or disturber record?   That isn't clear.  Given I 
just see a count, I'm not sure what kind of data would be needed to cause 
that to increment.

I'm assuming weewx updates the strike count based on the new lightning 
record.  But that's a guess...  is that guess accurate?  

Thanks in advance for any pointers...

Earl
