Descriptive statistics for regions influenced by Iran’s thunderstorms based on cluster analysis.
| Index | Frequency of the region which had few thunderstorms and high coefficient of variation (region 1) | Frequency of the region which had a mid-number of thunderstorms and low coefficient of variation (region 2) | Frequency of the region which had a great number of thunderstorms and low coefficient of variation (region 3) |
| Mean | 5.3 | 10.3 | 20.6 | Standard | 0.8 | 2 | 3.8 | Coefficient | 25.6 | 19.8 | 12.6 | Maximum | 6.9 | 15.7 | 31.2 | Minimum | 2.8 | 6.9 | 15.8 | Skewness | 0. 3 | 0.5 | −0.02 | Kurtosis | 2 | 2.6 | 2.5 | Range | 4 | 8.8 | 15.4 | Median | 5.3 | 10 | 19.4 |
